Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said on Tuesday that Russian tactical nuclear weapons would be physically deployed on the territory of Belarus “in several days” and that he had the facilities to host longer-range missiles too if ever needed.
Lukashenko, a staunch Putin ally, was cited by Belta as saying that Belarus was now ready to host the warheads.
Putin announced in March he had agreed to deploy tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus, pointing to the U.S deployment of such weapons in a host of European countries over many decades. “It was my demand. It wasn’t Russia who imposed it on me. Why? Because no one in the world has ever gone to war with a nuclear power. And I don’t want anyone to go to war with us. Is there such a threat? There is. I must neutralize that threat.”
“But the Topol is an intercontinental missile. Am I planning to go to war with America? No. That’s why this are enough for me for now.”
