The authors of the publication point out that, judging by the latest statements by Vladimir Putin and Alexander Lukashenko, politicians intend to take over the practice of the United States and NATO on nuclear weapons. Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that Russia is ready to take on the task of refurbishing Belarusian aircraft and the preparation of crews. At the same time, the Russian president mentioned that the United States practices this kind of interaction with their allies.
"This form of cooperation is not our invention. The US, for example, is taking similar measures with its allies under NATO for decades," Putin said. According to Vladimir Putin, these measures are necessary to "protect the Belarusian state. " Politicians also declared fears due to "tension" at the borders of Russia and Belarus. "We are very concerned about the flights of US and NATO aircraft that train nuclear warheads," said Alexander Lukashenko during a visit to St. Petersburg.
Two months later, Lukashenko told media representatives that everything was ready, but did not delve into details. Officials of the Russian Federation and Belarus have never provided any information about it. It should be reminded that the Secretary of the NSDC of Ukraine shared his thoughts about whether Vladimir Putin will physically eliminate Alexander Lukashenko. According to Danilov, Putin puts pressure on the Belarusian politician to draw his army into the war against Ukraine.
