Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko has said his country has started taking delivery of Russian tactical nuclear weapons, some of which he said were three times more powerful than the atomic bombs the US dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.

    Russia is desperately attempting to develop a buffer zone between itself and NATO using an entire vassal-state such as Belarus to act as a sacrificial region in the event of an extremely unlikely NATO incursion.

    We all know how it will go down though if shit hits the fan: Russia will literally allow the destruction of Belarus in order to develop a contingency and rally what’s left of their dogshit military to defend their oligarchs elsewhere.
