Expert says Russia has ‘humiliated’ Xi Jinping after Vladimir Putin‘s latest nuclear move breaks pact with China appeared on www.newshub.co.nz by Newshub.
The weapons “will be moved to the western border of our union state and will increase the possibilities to ensure security,” Russian ambassador to Belarus Boris Gryzlov told Belarusian state television.
“This will be done despite the noise in Europe and the United States.”
Russia Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu added Moscow is defending the “security of our allied state”.
“Some of the Belarusian attack aircraft have acquired the ability to strike enemy targets with nuclear weapons,” Shoigu said.
Three NATO countries share a border with Belarus. The northern border is shared with Lithuania and Latvia while the western border is shared with Poland.
This is all a part of NATO’s eastern flank which has been bolstered with additional troops and military equipment following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
This is the first time Moscow has moved nuclear weapons outside of Russia’s borders since the fall of the Soviet Union.
The former US ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul believes the move by Putin and the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko has “humiliated” Xi.
“Remember, Luka was just treated to a fancy state visit to China. Xi just came to Moscow. Can’t imagine this decision is going down well in Beijing,” McFaul said.
