«Belarus threatens to acquire strategic nuclear weapons, posing threat to the West»
Poland’s increased military preparations have raised concerns in neighboring countries, including Russia and Belarus. According to Russian Deputy Defense Minister Alexander Hrenin, Poland’s creation of new military units and brigades is an indication of advanced preparations for war. These actions have led Russia to declare that they will respond to any threat of force with force.
The Russian military has also been preparing for potential conflict by deploying tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus. Hrenin stated that aircraft and military vehicles capable of carrying nuclear ammunition have been prepared, and the Iskender missile system has been provided. Belarusian military units have undergone training for the use of modern aviation weapons, including special ammunition, under the guidance of Russian instructors.
Despite the preparations for potential conflict, Russian officials emphasized that they only see nuclear weapons as a last resort and that their goal is to live in peace and make independent decisions. The West’s fear of these goals is driving the hostile rhetoric and military preparations in the region.
As tensions continue to rise in the region, it is critical for all sides to prioritize diplomacy and peaceful resolution of conflicts. The use of force should always be a last resort, and all efforts must be made to prevent the outbreak of war.
