Apocalypse Now? Russian Tactical Nuclear Weapons in Position in the Territory of Belarus
Among the many disturbing geopolitical signs of tension between Russia and the Western powers, very few are as disturbing as the displacement of Russian tactical nuclear weapons to the territory of Belarus.
The positioning of the nukes is intended as a defense against both Ukraine and Poland.
Tactical nuclear weapons are designed for battlefield use and carry a smaller payload for specific location attacks – as opposed to much more powerful strategic intercontinental nuclear missiles.
In the old world, these weapons should give pause and make NATO rethink its push eastward by seeing that powerful retribution can be expected.
