Belarus President asking(on camera) the Russian Foreign minister for nuclear weapons
?
is he
is he really asking for nuclear weapons ?
is he mad as a march hair ?
(i use to like sergie the foreign minister but he has not remained independent enough from the machinations of Putin and he has lost his ability to give a sound reasonable voice to russian impartiality which is desperately needed, at once stage a few years back i use to follow him on twitter but now given the over all stance of riussia i would not follow any russians on twitter or any other social media because it seems like it would be inviting trouble)

what would be the effect of arming Belarus with nuclear missiles ?
it would force a need to change targeting and NATO strategy up to the highest level.
it would force a harder border between Belarus and Poland
maybe he thinks it would be good to scare poland
i dont think that would work in favour of Belarus.
what would be a well measured response if Belarus arms its self with russian medium range nuclear weapons ?
i think the B-52 and other high altitude nuclear bombers would need to re-orientate to move Belarus into a first reply attack category where routine targeting would need to be created.
what type of security would Belarus need to ensure the nuclear missiles were safe ?
the cost would be high & i guess they expect russia would pay for it.
Maybe it is about time poland NATO double checked its missile defense system over the Polish border
does that mean Poland needs 1st strike ability ? possibly (the question is worth asking)
low altitude nuclear cruise missiles ?
terrain hugging . . .
there is no defense against it
at the very least HMARs systems put into production to allow 300km range strike capability on instant choice for Poland so they can hit Belarus command & control networks if they are attacked or invaded(i doubt Belarus would invade but they may try and sneak across and sabotage something)
