Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko said Friday that he hopes the country's military forces will never have to use nuclear weapons.
"The longer we live, the more we make sure that they [nuclear weapons] must remain in Belarus, in a safe place. And I am sure that we will never have to use them as long as we have them, and the enemy will never set foot on our land," Lukashenko told a meeting for Independence Day.
The remarks came after he claimed that the US and the EU are arming Poland. Meanwhile, Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki proposed hosting US nuclear weapons today under NATO's nuclear sharing concept.
