No recorded transfer of Russian nuclear weapons to Belarus – observers

There are no facts indicating the transfer of Russian tactical nuclear weapons from the territory of the Russian Federation to the territory of Belarus. This was announced on Friday, June 16, by the monitoring group of Belarus Gayun.

“On 23.20 16.06.23 Belarusian So there is no corroborating information about the beginning of the real transfer of tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus,” the report said.

Observers noted that Putin and Lukashenko made a number of controversial statements about the arms movement. In particular, in March, Putin announced that the Russian Federation will deploy tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus until July 1, 2023. In May, Alexander Lukashenko said that the transfer of tactical nuclear weapons to the territory of Belarus It started. In the first ten days of June, Putin announced that the deployment of nuclear weapons in Belarus would begin after July 7-8. After that, Lukashenka, who previously said he had received tactical nuclear weapons, said, “not all at once.”

Belarusian experts suggest that in this way Putin and Lukashenko want to deceive the West, or the latter does not have real information about the movement of Russian nuclear weapons on the territory of the Republic of Belarus.

It will be remembered that the other day Lukashenko said that Belarus has already received tactical nuclear weapons from Russia. It is still being delivered.

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.
