Moscow.

March 25. INTERFAX - President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko has long raised the question of the possibility of deploying Russian tactical nuclear weapons on the territory of his country, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

"As for our talks with Alexander Grigoryevich Lukashenko, the statement of the British Defense Minister that they are going to supply depleted uranium shells to Ukraine was probably just the reason. One way or another, this is related to nuclear technology, this is an obvious thing. But even outside the context of these events, Alexander Grigoryevich Lukashenko has long raised the question of deploying Russian tactical nuclear weapons on the territory of Belarus," Putin said on Saturday in an interview with journalist Pavel Zarubin for the Moscow program. Kremlin. Putin", an excerpt from which was broadcast on Saturday on the TV channel "Russia 24" (VGTRK)

"There is nothing unusual here either: firstly, the US has been doing this for decades. They have long placed their tactical nuclear weapons on the territory of their allies, NATO countries, in Europe, in six states. If memory serves, these are Germany, Turkey, the Netherlands, Belgium, Italy and Greece," Putin stressed.

"Alexander Grigoryevich is right, he says: well, listen, we are your closest allies. Why do the Americans do this to their allies, they place their crews and their pilots on their territory, by the way, teach them to use this type of weapons if necessary," the Russian president stressed.

"We have agreed that we will do the same - without violating our obligations, I emphasize, without violating our international obligations on the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons, we have already helped our Belarusian colleagues and equipped their planes, the planes of the Belarusian Air Force. 10 aircraft are ready for the use of this type of weapon," Putin said.

In addition, Putin said, Russia has transferred the Iskander missile system to Belarus. "He can also be a carrier (of tactical nuclear weapons). From April 3, we will start training crews, and on July 1 we will finish the construction of a special storage facility for tactical nuclear weapons on the territory of Belarus," Putin said.

"Everything that the President of Belarus asked for, the questions he raised in this regard, are being implemented, and all our agreements will take place in the very near future," the president added.
