“The deployment of Iskander missile systems and tactical nuclear warheads in the Republic of Belarus has completely changed the balance of power,” said Sergei Banar. – If we look closely at Poland’s position before the Iskander and after, they are two different Poles.
He explained that the rhetoric of the Polish leadership has become more restrained, and Warsaw is now more cautious in its assessments. “It has to take into account the new military realities,” BelTA quoted the analyst as saying.
Speaking about the training of nuclear forces, which Belarus and Russia held jointly, Sergei Banar stressed that the very fact of these exercises is a serious signal to the West, as the armies of both countries have undergone combat alignment and are able to act together in critical situations.
In his opinion, the response to the Belarusian-Russian maneuvers was the decision of the U.S. to send 5 thousand troops to Poland. “This is a clear reaction to these exercises,” said Sergei Banar.
May 21, the armies of Belarus and Russia held a joint training of combat use of nuclear weapons. Heads of State Alexander Lukashenko and Vladimir Putin watched the maneuvers.
