“The collective West is essentially waging an undeclared war against our countries,” Putin’s defence minister, Sergei Shoigu, said at a meeting with his Belarusian counterpart in Minsk, according to Russia’s defence ministry.
“The movement of the nuclear weapons has already begun,” Lukashenko told reporters in Moscow, where he was attending talks with other leaders of ex-Soviet states.STORING NUCLEAR WEAPONS “I will just add we have seen no reason to adjust our strategic nuclear posture or any indications that Russia is preparing to use a nuclear weapon,” Miller told reporters.
Belarus has borders with three NATO members – Poland, Lithuania and Latvia. Russia will remain in control of the weapons.Tactical nuclear weapons are used for tactical gains on the battlefield, and are usually smaller in yield than the strategic nuclear weapons designed to destroy U.S. or Russian cities.
