Vladimir Putin said that the movement has already begun, and the first nuclear weapons are already located on the territory of Belarus.
The world should take “very seriously” Russia’s intentions to deploy tactical nuclear weapons on the territory of Belarus. This was announced on Friday, June 16, by the Ukrainian Ambassador to the UK Vadym Prystaiko, writes CNN.
The diplomat noted that the nuclear armament of Belarus is a violation of international agreements and stressed that in this way Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is trying to blackmail the whole world.
“I believe that he is blackmailing us all: Ukrainians first of all, and then Europeans, Americans and all our partners around,” said the ambassador.
He also noted that Ukraine will be able to counter such a threat, as it has an air defense system from allies.
At the same time, the Belarusian Gayun said that so far there are no facts indicating the transfer of Russian tactical nuclear weapons from the territory of the Russian Federation to the territory of Belarus.
In March, Putin announced an agreement with Lukashenka on the deployment of nuclear weapons in Belarus. Minsk was given the Iskander missile system, which can be a carrier of tactical nuclear weapons. Some Belarusian aircraft have also been converted to use nuclear weapons.
