The U.S. and the EU panic - nuclear weapons return to Belarus

The President warned our so-called partners about the possibility of deploying nuclear weapons in Belarus. Preventing the escalation of tensions near the borders of the Union State is all that was required from the United States and its satellites. What was the answer? Discussion of the expansion of the geography of the deployment of American nuclear weapons in Europe, in particular, next to us, in Poland and the modernization of the nuclear arsenal in Europe.

By the way, about 150 US nuclear bombs of various modifications are currently deployed in Europe. Do we have confidence in Americans and Europeans? Firstly, it is the United States that is the only country in the world that has used nuclear weapons to destroy civilians in its own interests, and secondly, we have already been promised a lot, and as a result: an economic war, a hybrid with psychological operations and coup attempts. Ekaterina Tikhomirova about the nuclear shield of Belarus.

The weapons of mass persuasion.

There was a lot of talk about the deployment of tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus this week. It pinched the nerves of the world community, after Vladimir Putin's statement that tactical nuclear weapons would be deployed in Belarus. The office of the Ukrainian comedian said that Minsk was taken hostage. Well, look who’s talking. Borrell was so outraged by the news of tactical nuclear weapons that he did not notice the American nuclear arsenals literally under his nose, just an hour's drive from the Brussels headquarters of NATO. In general, Josep Borrell decided to uncover another package of sanctions, but Europe itself does not know what to put into this package. The entire European think barely found something for it. What won't the European bureaucracy think of next? We went through the stages of accepting the inevitable. Welcome! Negation.

Ulrich Kühn, Institute for Peace and Security Studies (Hamburg):

Putin did not say that he would transfer nuclear warheads to Belarus. He said that they were creating opportunities that is, storage spaces.

Poland became hysterical, forgetting in its amnesia that it had recently begged Uncle Sam to host American nuclear weapons. Alexander Lukashenko set the record straight this Friday.

Alexander Lukashenko, President of the Republic of Belarus:

In the current circumstances and the military-political situation around our country, I strongly intensified negotiations with Russian President V. Putin on the return of nuclear weapons to Belarus, namely on the return of nuclear weapons, which were withdrawn from the country in the 90s. Then it was done under the guarantees of no sanctions against those who withdrew, no pressure, no planning of offensives and revolutions. Everything is trampled upon, everything is broken. I want to protect the Belarusian state and ensure peace for the Belarusian people. By their history, by their entire existence, my people deserve it. We don't want to live under the whip anymore and we won't be slaves!

We are talking about tactical nuclear weapons. Tactical is not strategic, it has a smaller radius of destruction and explosive power. It can be carried by both aircraft and missile systems. Iskander, according to the characteristics, is capable of sending a missile with a warhead of up to 50 kilotons. For comparison, Topol, which was installed in Soviet Belarus, could carry a megaton charge. Iskanders. The guidance time is a matter of seconds. The launch cannot be prevented, the missiles in the air are able to be redirected, and are very maneuverable. The flight range is 500 km, the speed is hypersound. The deployment of this type of weapon is tactical, after threats from the western direction, consider it the last Belarusian warning. By the way, at the time of the collapse of the Soviet Union, Belarus was considered the eighth country in the world in terms of nuclear weapons stockpiles. And in the years of the USSR it was a nuclear fortress. But a huge country collapsed, and security guarantees in the form of a nuclear shield were exchanged for guarantees of dubious Eurodemocracy.

Alexander Lukashenko, President of the Republic of Belarus:

I gave an order to our military: to immediately restore the sites on which the Topol (strategic missile system) nuclear warheads were placed. I kept all those venues. I must say: Putin and I will decide and introduce strategic weapons here, if necessary. And they should understand this, scoundrels, there abroad, who today are trying to blow us up from within and abroad. We will stop at nothing to defend our countries, our States and our peoples.

The Russian position on the deployment of tactical weapons is a response to British shells with uranium for Ukraine. By the way, they also have a nuclear component. But the Foggy Albion keeps quiet about it. The representative of the United States also shuts up like an oyster. They even gathered the UN Security Council for the sake of nuclear weapons for Belarus. What about America's nuclear weapons in Europe?

Vasily Nebenzya, Permanent Representative of Russia to the United Nations:

There are no objective reasons for convening today's meeting, especially at the initiative of the United States. I would like to ask my American colleague a simple question: can he confirm or deny that American nuclear weapons are located not only in the national territory of the United States, but also in the territory of Europe?"

Valentin Rybakov, Permanent Representative of Belarus to the United Nations:

We are grateful to Ukraine for bringing this issue to today's meeting of the Security Council. We believe that both the Security Council and the entire international community should finally pay close attention to the real danger posed by NATO's joint nuclear missions and the long-standing deployment of nuclear weapons by the United States beyond its national jurisdiction.

In Europe and Turkey, the United States holds about 150 of its nuclear bombs. Until 2019, this information was classified. But the secret was revealed after the report "A new era of nuclear deterrence? Modernization, Arms Control and Nuclear Forces of the Allies". These bombs are stored at six American and European bases: Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Turkey.

Kleine Brogel in Belgium, Büchel Air Base in Germany, Aviano and Ghedi Torre in Italy, Volkel in Netherlands, Incirlik in Turkey"

This is in addition to the legacy of the Cuban Missile Crisis. Last fall, the United States announced the renewal of the nuclear arsenal in Europe. And in recent years, the United States and Poland have directly voiced ideas and proposals to expand the geography of the deployment of American nuclear weapons. Where? Closer to the borders of the Union State of Russia and Belarus. What could cause a nuclear strike? If they come, without a tactical or strategic core, there is something to answer. Alexander Lukashenko warned, but if there is a threat of destruction of our country, the answer will be short, flying at a very high speed.

Alexander Lukashenko, President of the Republic of Belarus:

If we see that behind this lies the threat of destruction of our country, we will apply everything that we have, frankly speaking.

Vladimir Putin, President of Russia (2018):

They must know that retaliation is inevitable, that they will be destroyed. And we are victims of aggression, and we, as martyrs, will go to heaven, and they will simply die.

Tactical nuclear weapons in storage should cool the ardor of hot American and pro-American heads, before crossing the dangerous line. In the end, they talk about the cyclical nature of history. Well, then maybe it's time to remember...

Nikita Khrushchev, First Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union from 1953 to 1964:

So you, gentlemen, “fuck it”, let’s look around. We did not finish you off at Stalingrad, in Ukraine, in Belarus. If you “bite” against us and again prepare an attack, then we will “bite” so that you will no longer duck.

Nuclear weapons, whether tactical or strategic, are a terrible thing. We will apply it, Alexander Lukashenko said, if there is no other way. There is also no concept of a pre-emptive strike in Russian doctrine. But the United States has its face in the trough, the only country in the world that has used nuclear weapons. And, by the way, once it had an idea to repeat this experience in Vietnam ...
