Dmitry Medvedev, deputy secretary of Russia’s Security Council, warned earlier this week of a possible “nuclear apocalypse.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin announced Saturday Russia will station some of its nuclear weapons in Belarus, the first time Russia will base such weapons outside the country in more than 30 years, amid growing tensions between Russia and the U.S., including a warning of a possible nuclear conflict by Russian officials.
Russia will complete the construction of a storage facility for the weapons by July 1, Putin added, though the transferral of warheads will not violate “our international obligations on the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons.”
