March 25 (Reuters) - Russia has struck a deal with neighbouring Belarus to station tactical nuclear weapons on its territory but will not violate non-proliferation agreements, President Vladimir Putin said on Saturday.

Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko had long raised the issue of stationing tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus, which borders Poland, Putin told state television.

"There is nothing unusual here either: firstly, the United States has been doing this for decades. They have long deployed their tactical nuclear weapons on the territory of their allied countries," he said.

"We agreed that we will do the same - without violating our obligations, I emphasize, without violating our international obligations on the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons."

Russia will have completed the construction of a storage facility for tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus by July 1, Putin said, adding that Moscow would not actually be transferring control of the arms to Minsk.

Russia has stationed 10 aircraft in Belarus capable of carrying tactical nuclear weapons, he said, adding that Moscow had already transferred to Belarus a number of Iskander tactical missile systems than can be used to launch nuclear weapons.

Russia should deploy one in Iran too

Russians need toilets in their houses and he is busy deploying tactical nukes!

Instead of Putin to focus on developing the shithole he calls a country, he is busy fighting inconsequential wars!

Big for nothing nation, that a small Germany even has a bigger economy that the entirety of Russia!

Nothing happens in Russia outside vodka!

BidenDTrounce:

You seem to be describing the West.

Hello! Glad you did not even mention Russia cos you know it’s a shithole! Nothing happens there! It’s not even economically buoyant!

As for that slave market called China, it’s still behind the a West! It still cannot boast about a U.S. economy, how much more the West!

Stop hyping communist who control their media and only show you the good things they have. China is a slave market! A nation that controls its citizens like cattle herds!

BidenDTrounce:

Ok bro
It's unnecessary to engage an individual who has no comprehension of current affairs.

I don’t give a Kentucky fried fvcks!

Lol! This is pure hatred. Russia is nothing like any African country. It is a developed country. You can ask Nigerians living there. I have a friend in St Petersburg. It is not different from the rest of Europe.

It’s true! We have corrupt politicians, they have oligarchs. We even have freedom of speech, which they don’t have. It’s a very corrupt and poverty stricken nation. Minimum wage is low as fvck and Prato all y nothin happens there outside vodka

Oligarchs are in the West too. The main reason why the US will never stop issuing license (Gun ownership license) to citizens is because of the oligarchs in the US. They are the most powerful people in the United State.

But mind you. Most of the individuals the West call oligarchs who are Russian citizens are business owners. The West is stealing the funds and properties of these rich Russian guys. If you don't believe me. Kindly name the court in EU or UK that actually labelled these people as criminals before their funds and properties were seized (stolen)?

The EU and US also seized Russian foreign reserve. These funds belong to ordinary Russians not Putin. The funds are supposed to be used for import and export of goods. Are ordinary Russians oligarchs too? We need to be smart. We need to start thinking independently. BBC, CNN,RT News, TASS, Spunik, Fox News, DW, France24,Press TV, CNTV, Arise TV e.t.c should not be doing the thinking for us.

Russians protested, which is normal. Everyone can not support government action. Name one person that was shot or killed. Remember end SARS. There is riot going on in France now. Imagine if this is happening in Russia.

A wise man said, 'believe nothing, even if I have said it. Unless it conforms with your own reasoning'. The West that you are following blindly are breaking their own rules and you don't see anything bad in it. They told us in Africa not to use coal no matter what. But now they are using coal because of lack of Russian gas. They are stealing Russians funds and properties without court proceedings. They accused/punished Russia for the event in Bucha without any investigation (jungle justice). I can go on and on.
