Russia will start deploying tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus after special storage facilities are ready on July 7-8, President Vladimir Putin said on Friday, Moscow’s first move of such bombs outside Russia since the fall of the Soviet Union.
More than 15 months into the biggest land war in Europe since World War Two, Putin says the United States and its Western allies are pumping arms into Ukraine as part of an expanding proxy war aimed at bringing Russia to its knees.
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.
Leading NATO countries say they will support Ukraine and help it defend itself for as long as it takes from what Kyiv casts as an imperial-style land grab by Russia which threatens the survival of the Ukrainian state.
“Everything is going according to plan,” Putin told Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko when discussing the planned nuclear deployment during talks at the Russian leader’s Black Sea summer retreat in Sochi.
“Preparation of the relevant facilities ends on July 7-8, and we will immediately begin activities related to the deployment of appropriate types of weapons on your territory,” Putin said, according to a Kremlin transcript of his remarks. *** Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Ukraine will not rest however until every last Russian soldier is ejected from his country, which he wants to join NATO as soon as possible.
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.

Now look boys, I ain't much of a hand at makin' speeches. But I got a pretty fair idea that something doggoned important's going on back there. And I got a fair idea of the kind of personal emotions that some of you fella's may be thinking. Heck, I reckon you wouldn't even be human beings if you didn't have some pretty strong personal feelings about nuclear combat. But I want you to remember one thing, the folks back home is a countin' on ya, and by golly we ain't about to let 'em down. Tell you somethin' else. This thing turns out to be half as important is I figure it just might be, I'd say that you're all in line for some important promotions and personal citations when this thing's over with. That goes for every last one of you, regardless of your race, color, or your creed. Now, let's get this thing on the hump. We got some flying to do......"
It’s called “Mutually Assured Destruction”. It’s why cuntries like Russia don’t chuck nukes at us or our allies. They nuke one of our cities and we reduce their country to rubble.
And unlike Russia we maintain our nukes and expect all of them to work.
Considering that Biden has been the primary supporter of arms, money, and tactical advice to Zelensky, I’m kind of surprised Russia hasn’t already done something to us like shutting down our power grid somewhere.
Russia's real enemy is the Globalist cabal ( US/NATO/EU), attempting to keep the USD propped up as world reserve currency
The USA is just a tool of the globalist power brokers, they dont want to arouse the citizens (yet) . Another reason Russia hasn't gone all out and leveled Ukriane (yet)
....and Belgium, and Germany, and Italy, and sometimes Greece and soon back in the UK.
Really gross, low class and unbecoming for a woman to use the "c" word, dontcha think?
Yes, yes, I know - of course it was a typo! Wink! Wink! Nudge! Nudge! But I highly, highly suspect that you'd never make that same mistake referring to your beloved, shining-city-on-a-human-and-child-trafficking-hill Youcrayne, would you?
Thank you for informing me about MAD - first time I've heard of it!
Wait, the Globalists want to keep the USD as the world reserve currency? I thought it was quite the opposite. We seem to be doing everything we can to destroy the Dollar.
Actually it was a typo. Inadvertently funny though. Thank you for pointing it out!
LOL!!!
Thank you for the levity!
:)
Now that’s funny! Lol!
Whenever the Russian tac nukes talks start, you know things aren’t going well for Russia.
Nobody should be nuking anyone.
I was going to ask for the interpretation — and then the light dawned!
Biden was paid to keep this war going and Americans paying.
You failed to complete the thought.
The moment "NATO" launches nukes at Russia to "obliterate" them, Russia will have their ICBM's launched and headed to the U.S., the U.K., France and Germany.
Not only would Russia be obliterated, the United States and Europe would be obliterated as well.
Russia isn't suicidal like the theocratic 7th century barbarians in the middle east. The tactical nukes would not be for use against Poland, they are for use inside Ukraine, for when there is an airbase with a wing or more of U.S. "donated" F16's stationed there.
I agree. So why do Russia and our Putinista brigade here on FR issue daily nuclear threats?
Russia is putting nukes into Belarus to threaten NATO, not Ukraine.
Didja ever hear of Luke 17?
28 “It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. 29 But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all.
30 “It will be just like this on the day the Son of Man is revealed.
