[ad_1]
White House spokesman John Kirby said the US sees no sign of Russia placing nuclear weapons in Belarus. Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Moscow and Minsk had agreed to deploy tactical nuclear weapons.
“We don’t see any indication that he has kept his promise or sent a nuclear weapon,” Kirby said.
Earlier, the Pentagon reported that they did not have intelligence data that the Russian Federation was going to use nuclear weapons, and therefore the American side did not plan to change the configuration of its own nuclear forces.
The EU announced its readiness tighten sanctions in the event of the deployment of nuclear weapons in Belarus.
