Russian President Vladimir Putin says that Moscow will deploy some of its tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus next month, a move that the Belarusian opposition described as an attempt to blackmail the West. Putin said during Friday's meeting with Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko that work on building facilities for the nuclear weapons will be completed by July 7-8, and they will be moved to Belarus quickly after that. The move comes as Ukraine has stepped up attacks in several sectors of the front line in what some observers see as the start of its long-expected counteroffensive. Russia used Belarus’ territory to send troops into Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022, and has kept forces on Belarusian territory.

      Can you please stop calling users reddit trolls? It undermines the conversation and alienates any user from your viewpoint. It would be more helpful for all of us, including you, if you were to address the topic rather than attack a user’s character. If you arguments are sound, then they will hold weight among the rest of us the read them. The voting tool will help with that.

      Of course, some trolls are going to come out, but those tend to be evident because they don’t argue in good faith and use logical fallacies such as ad hominem attacks. I’m all for hearing different perspectives, it’s the only way to grow, so I would be happy to hear your viewpoints.
