At the request of the Belarusian side, Russia will deploy its tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus, the same way as the United States has been doing on the territory of its allied countries.
On March 25, Russian President Vladimir Putin declared that the construction of a special storage facility for tactical nuclear weapons on the territory of Belarus will end on July 1.
The decision was made after London had declared its plans to supply Ukraine with depleted uranium shells. In response, President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko warned that Russia would supply Belarus with “ammunition with real uranium.”
“Even outside the context of these events, this statement (about possible supplies of depleted uranium ammunition by Britain to Ukraine), Alexander Grigoryevich Lukashenko has long raised the question of deploying Russian tactical nuclear weapons on the territory of Belarus,” Putin said.
He stressed that there is “nothing unusual” in such a decision, since “the United States has been doing this for decades.”
“They have long placed their tactical nuclear weapons on the territories of their allies, NATO countries, and in Europe. In six states – the Federal Republic of Germany, Turkey, the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy and Greece – well, not in Greece now, but there is still a storage facility,” the Russian president said.
Moscow and Minsk have agreed to do the same, “without violating their international obligations on the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons,” Putin stressed.
Vladimir Putin stressed that Russia does follow the example of the United States. It is not transferring its tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus, but it will deploy them and train the military, like the United States do in Europe.
“In fact, we are doing all the same things that they have been doing for decades,” Putin explained, noting that the Americans are deploying these weapons and preparing carriers and crews. “We are going to do the same thing, that’s what Alexander Grigoryevich asked for,” concluded the President of the Russian Federation.
Russia has already helped Minsk to upgrade its aircraft, 10 of which already can carry nuclear weapons. Russian famous Iskander complexes were also deployed in Belarus. On July 1, the construction of a special storage facility for tactical nuclear weapons will be finished and on July 3, Russia will start training Belarusian crews on operation of these weapons.
“So everything that the President of Belarus asked, all the questions he raised in this regard, they are being implemented, and all our agreements will take place in the very near future,” the Russian leader continued.
Moscow clarified that London’s decision to transfer depleted uranium shells to Ukraine was not a reason but rather a pretext.
“As for our talks with Alexander Grigoryevich Lukashenko… Just a pretext was the statement of the British Deputy Defense Minister [Annabel Goldie] that they are going to supply depleted uranium charges to Ukraine, this is anyway concerned with nuclear technologies,” Putin said.
Despite the ongoing statements by NATO member states that they are allegedly trying to stop the war and defend themselves from “Russian aggression” by fully arming and coordinating the actions of the Ukrainian military, London clearly assessed its provocation and took another step towards a global nuclear war. Russia’s reaction is not unexpected. Moscow has already demonstrated its readiness to fight and respond to the all provocations of NATO, including with its nuclear weapons. While NATO is pursuing its offensive policy aimed at destroying Russia, the war in Ukraine, which has been going on for many years, poses an existential threat to Moscow.
Are we heading to nuclear war, depends on USA if not accepting defeat that they already lost trade business to control. Instead they should learn to compete in trade businesses, to accept trade challenges, and learn to cooperate with countries who are on the top of economy. Taking down this countries would destroy whole world. UK made odd request to Russia, to be given another 10 years to prepare brits military ( not sure did rt or ria novosti reported this ). If they hand depleted uranium to Ukraine, Russia announced they will respond accordingly, and that means UK should watch on its moves. This is why UK made that odd request to Russia. They want russians to accept what ever NATO, UK, USA and EU do, but Russia and China and Iran and North Korea to stay frozen in time not protecting its people and its lands.
I am almost seventy years old and I have been waiting for this moment whole my life. Russia should nuke dumb polaks Warsaw, EU idiots Brussels, stinky british monarchy London and nest of hornets Washington DC. And it must be done NOW!!!
Russia is going to react only in self-defense. Putin is too soft, and he thinks what future brings to the world, not destroying world. I am not sure is it right term to say he is too soft with reactions. Some people would just use nukes long time ago and this brings bad reputation if Russia do so, some people would do same as Putin, Putin does not want war, he knows world would be destroyed, nobody would survive. He has very elastic tolerance nerves. I am not taking his side or saying he is right or wrong, saying he is too patient with international terrorists from USA, these terrorists should be arrested and handed to people of destroyed countries to judge them, this is what I would do if I am Putin.
Of course I would agree to round up all this USA’s war terrorists and nuke them down in location far away from the civilian population. But it is not right to make them suffer so easy and fast, because of all lives they destroyed in war-torn countries.
That would be in Davos, during a yearly conference.
Not sure I understand you well, in Davos to settle down anything and what or what else you meant ? Even Erdogan stopped going to Davos conference, and Turkey is NATO’s ally. So things in Davos are no more in favour how to make world better place for everyone, it became more as cabal club.
I agree, Ramschel.
I am a little older than you and have also been watching the deliberate moral destruction of the UK by the puppets who serve their satanic masters.
My dying wish would be to learn that the UK puppets are consumed by fire.
Ahh the ever deluded, deranged rantings of Florian Geyer. I truly feel sorry for your parents that they raised a vile, disgusting human being such as yourself. Maybe they should’ve drowned you at birth, it would’ve been the most humane thing to do.
Anglos are losers, do not pay much attention to them. They are that loud, obnoxious rabid dog in the corner. Their empire is swirling in the toilet. They have an entitlement complex bigger than the Federal Reserve fraud
Mankind should finally get rid of all politicians and abolish the profession of politician. I will not cheer for Putin, nor for the West, nor for China. I don’t want to see that childish crap. …..They should station their rockets in their bedroom if they want and let the rest of humanity build a real civilization. Politicians are the plague and not nice uncles like the propaganda suggests. I think that Putin, Biden, Zelensky, Scholz and the rest of the idiots should look for another planet and then play polar and unipolar together there. This crap is just stupid and embarrassing.
The globalists are high off of pushing and bombing little countries when confronted with a country that can defend itself there is no solution for them but to remain in their place they have a real problem with the realities of this.
Ešte treba rozmiestniť na Kube, vo Venezuele a mohla by sa pripojiť i Nikaragua ak by mala záujem.
