Putin tells Lukashenko: Russia to deploy tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus in July

Russian President Putin on Friday said that Moscow would deploy some of its tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus next month.

Putin made the remarks during a meeting with Belarusian President Lukashenko.

This is Moscow’s first move of such bombs outside Russia since the fall of the Soviet Union.

The move comes as Ukraine has stepped up attacks in several sectors of the frontline in what some observers see as the start of its long-expected counteroffensive.

Putin in March announced he wanted to deploy tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus, an apparent warning to the U.S.-led NATO military alliance over it support for Ukraine.

Putin’s nuclear move is being watched closely by both the United States and its NATO allies in Europe and by China, which has repeatedly cautioned against the use of nuclear weapons in the conflict.

Stronger Russia is essential to keep the warmonger US in check.

Well west especially the US this is what you get for scaring the hell out of Belarusians and Russians. They have the right to protect their sovereignty

[epicsuper]

I support this; since US has nukes at the door steps of Russia, why can't Russia? Russia should deploy nukes to Cuba, Venezuela, etc. as well.

The Russian Federation 🇷🇺🐻 has every right to defend itself against NATO aggression 🪖

[merceddominguez]

The word "Nuke" was initially used by Americans & Europeans stating Russia is threatening to use it against them...
Putin stated, If there are nuclear launches towards Russia, they would respond with equal force ~

Comrade Lukaschenko is loyal to Emperor Putin both are Legends

To stop the ukrain war and make them to the peace talk, Russia needs to get to the gang leader (we all know who). Right now the gang leader is still in control of ukrain.

[andersbergman]

the attempted color revolution from 2020 really backfires on the west =))).

[joshdenton]

perhaps north korea could use some as well😉

For any uncertain eventualities, Russia and Belarus need to be prepared at the 'drop of a hat' and believe me, they are already prepared for this escalation, since 2011. Victory to Russian Motherland

[srinivasangovindan]

What happened to the Guardian and Daily Telegraph story of Lukashenko poised post meeting with Putin? A few weeks ago..was he cured by the Russians!😂

SCORPION drones should be tested in ukraine's warzone. At the same time they shouldn't collect the samples of our drones. So Russia should take care of it carefully we want A brief report and video about SCORPION drones it can be sold all over the world and china can get into next model of SCORPION drone with different softwares...
