The Biden administration is urging U.S. citizens in Belarus to depart the country immediately and warned against travel there in a statement published Monday.
The updated travel warning comes after bordering countries Lithuania, Latvia and Poland have stepped up security along the border over concerns about Russian Wagner mercenary forces exiled in the country.
The State Department, in its warning, encouraged Americans still in Belarus to depart the country immediately and categorized the country as a Level 4 risk, the highest security warning.
They also have nukes. This is fucking terrifying.
Stop with the goddamn nuke psychosis. rusian nukes aint worth shit. Be more scared of meteorites hitting the earth or dinosaur comeback but not rusian meme weapons

America knows that Russian nuclear silos are in as poor a state as American nuclear silos, if not worse. Like in the US where only one wrench is shared between multiple silos and they ship it back and forth. Working in a silo is a dead end gig.
The problem with weapons you never intend to use is that you stop giving a shit about their maintenance, or just steal their budget for something else/yourself. Sub launched nukes are the real threat at this stage, of which there are far fewer.
As an example: https://time.com/6212698/nuclear-missiles-icbm-triad-upgrade/
Isn’t most of the US nuclear arsenal on subs? I mean we have 14 SSBN Ohio class subs each of which has 20 Trident II missiles each of which can have up to 12 100kt warheads. Thats up to potentially 3,360 100kt nuclear warheads ready to be lauched at a moments notice. If that isn’t enough to get the job done then I don’t think a few silos are going to make much of a difference.
Those have been in service for 30-40 years apiece at this stage, and only a portion of those will be at sea at any given time. Still a terrifying amount of destructive power to be sure though, for whatever “the job” turns out to be in the end.
Silos are still deemed a critical part of the nuclear triad, along with air and sea.
the US has 400 nuclear missile silos
You realize that Russia also has the latest gen. of mobile launchers, right? Google Topol-M.
There are only about 18 active Topol-M vehicles in a state of service, it’s the newer Yars launchers you have to worry about now! But likewise, there are an estimated 150 manufactured, in some form of service, unknown levels of readiness. The Russian military has been embezzling swathes of its budget at all levels, I wouldn’t be confident that this too isn’t also at a poor state of readiness.
China is the one making all new investments in a huge nuclear capability, they’re the ones to watch really.
Ru*sian weaponry works is the most delusional tankie take.

Your comment reminds me of that guys videos
Sorry mate that link dont open on mobile. But I’m sure truth lies in yt shorts
Interesting that the link doesn’t work here but works in nostupidquestions
That is odd
Do you really think it’s worth taking that risk if it comes down to it?
Yes.
It’s suicide for them if they do. We know our nukes work.
Rather not let nuclear dictators have free reign on the world because “OMG they may nuke us”. Otherwise give em the keys to the world right now and surrender.
There’s an old American proverb: LIVE FREE OR DIE
It’s a gamble I’d rather not take personally
It’d be fucking funny doe. And would definitely beat getting subjected to these shitpeople
You don’t have a very good grasp of reality do you.
There’s two possible outcomes here and neither of them are enslavement at the hands of the Russians. How are they going to do that, they can’t invade a country one 10th the size of the United States what are they going to do? But what they might do is launch missiles, nuclear or otherwise, in fit of peak.
So the two outcomes are, they either do nothing, or they nuke us. There’s no scenario where they’re going to invade.

The fastest predator in the world right now is a dinosaur that can fly at over 200 mph— with razor-sharp claws, and so durable it can survive crashing into moving objects at that speed.
Their friends are scary smart. They’re fiercely loyal, and yet ruthless and cruel.
And we’ve spent the last while spraying their eggs with poison, releasing bio-engineered killer drones into their midst, and planting invisible obstacles right in the middle of their highways.
Bruh doesnt know about the dinosaur comeback smh my head
Ikr know Right
