Russia Has Moved Tactical Nuclear Weapons to Belarus, Western
Officials Confirm

Russia has moved tactical nuclear weapons from its own borders into
neighboring Belarus, several hundred miles closer to NATO territory,
Western officials confirmed to Foreign Policy, as Russian President
Vladimir Putin threatens a wider military showdown with the alliance
over its continued support for Ukraine.

The move, which Putin first announced in June of last year, is likely
aimed at ramping up pressure on NATO's eastern flank. It follows years
of nuclear saber-rattling intended to scare the West into paring back
its support for Ukraine, now in its third year of war against Russia's
invasion, though top NATO officials insist that the move doesn't
drastically change the nature of Russia's military threats to NATO.
