Putin: Russia to station nuclear weapons in Belarus

Feb 16,2020 9:33 am

Russia will station tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus, President Vladimir Putin has said.

President Putin said The Move would not violate nuclear non-proliferation agreements and compared it to the US stationing its weapons in Europe, according to Russian State media.

Moscow would not be transferring control of its arms to Minsk, he added.

The Belarusian regime is a firm Kremlin ally and supporter of The Invasion of Ukraine.

President Putin told Russian State television on Saturday that Belarusian leader Alexander Lukashenko had long raised the issue of stationing tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus.

" There is nothing unusual here either, " He Said . " Firstly, the United States has been doing this for decades. They have long deployed their tactical nuclear weapons on The Territory of their allied countries. "

Russia will have completed the construction of a storage facility for tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus by 1 July, President Putin added.

A small number of Iskander tactical missile systems, which can be used to launch nuclear weapons, have already been transferred to Belarus, President Putin said.

He did not specify when the weapons would be transferred to Belarus. It will be the First Time since the mid-1990s that Moscow will have based nuclear arms outside the country.

The Soviet Union 's collapse in 1991 meant weapons became based in four newly-independent states - Russia , Ukraine, Belarus and Kazakhstan - with the transfer of all warheads to Russia completed in 1996.

President Putin's comments come after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky renewed his plea for more military support from his Western allies.

Earlier This Week , some 18 countries signed an over The Next year.

But in an, President Zelensky said Ukraine could not launch a potential counter-offensive in The East of the country until further ammunition arrived.
