Russia will fight back with all its weapons, The Russian ambassador speaks up! If Belarus is attacked, Belarus | Russia | Ambassador
According to the Russian Sputnik News Agency on August 21, the Russian ambassador to Belarus said that if the white side is attacked, "Russia will use all available weapons to fight back".
The report quoted Boris Grezlov, the Russian Ambassador to Belarus, as saying that Russia regards a third country attack on Belarus as an attack on Russian territory and will use all available weapons to retaliate.
On the 20th, Belarusian STV aired an interview with Grazlov, in which he said, "Russian President Vladimir Putin has clearly stated that within the framework of an alliance state, if Belarusian territory is attacked, we will consider it as if Russia is attacked. According to Russian military science, in this situation, all available weapons can be used to retaliate."
In addition, it was reported on the website of today's Russian TV station on August 21 that during the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Russia and Belarus strengthened military cooperation. Earlier this year, Russia announced the deployment of nuclear weapons in Belarus. Belarusian leaders point out that Western countries are increasingly hostile towards their policies, and the threat from US nuclear weapons is also increasing.
The relationship between Belarus and its neighboring Poland has also become tense.
The Russia-Ukraine conflict further worsened the relations between Belarus and Poland. Poland has responded angrily to Russia's deployment of nuclear weapons in Belarus and has repeatedly issued warnings about the activities of the Wagner mercenary group in Russia.
