Russia’s announcement that it will move tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus is “dangerous and irresponsible.”
This was stated in NATO, reacting to the intentions voiced by Russian dictator Vladimir Putin to place nuclear weapons in Belarus, CNN reports.
NATO remains vigilant and we are closely monitoring the situation. We have not noticed any changes in Russia’s nuclear policy that would force us to adjust our own, NATO spokeswoman Oana Lungescu said.
Lungescu also stressed that Putin’s statement that such a step would allegedly be only a mirror image of the steps of Western countries is “absolutely misleading.”
NATO members act with respect for their international obligations. Russia has consistently violated its arms control obligations by recently suspending its participation in the New START Treaty, she added and called on the Russian Federation to return to fulfilling its obligations and “act in good faith.”
