US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said that the White House is closely monitoring the developments due to the decision of the Kremlin criminal Vladimir Putin to deploy Russian tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus.

At the same time, Blinken stressed that the United States has no reason to change its nuclear policy and they do not see any indication that Russia is preparing to use its nuclear weapons.
He also stressed that the United States remains ready to protect every inch of NATO territory.
As for Belarus itself, this is just another example of Lukashenka’s irresponsible and provocative choice to cede control of Belarusian sovereignty against the will of the Belarusian people, the US Secretary of State said.
Putin announced on Friday at an economic forum in St. Petersburg that the first batch of Russian tactical nuclear weapons had already been delivered to Belarus.
Speaking in St. Petersburg, he groundlessly attacked NATO, accusing the Alliance of provoking Moscow.
Everyone is waiting for us to start pushing buttons, but we will not do this,” the Russian president said.
