“On the most sensitive issues that we have agreed upon with you, everything is going according to plan. You know, on July 7-8, the preparation of the corresponding facilities will be completed. And we will immediately begin the steps related to the deployment of related type of weapons on your territory,” Putin said. .
He added that he would talk to Lukashenka “face to face” about security issues.
“In general, the situation is stable, I would say good. We are confidently dealing with this area,” the Kremlin leader said.
In March, Putin announced an agreement with Lukashenka on the deployment of tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus. Minsk has already received the Iskander missile system, which can be a carrier of tactical nuclear weapons. Some Belarusian aircraft have also been converted for possible use with nuclear weapons.
And at the end of May, the defense ministers of Russia and Belarus signed documents on the deployment of nuclear weapons on the territory of Belarus.
