Self-proclaimed President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko threw a tantrum over the supply of tank shells with depleted uranium for Challenger 2 tanks from Britain to Ukraine. He called the country’s government “crazy” and threatened “a terrible lesson for the planet” from Russia.
A video of the hysteria of the unrecognized head of the Republic of Belarus was published by Russian propagandists on Wednesday, March 22. Lukashenka boasted that the aggressor country will supply Belarus “ammunition with real uranium” (To watch the video, scroll to the bottom of the page).
“If they (Britain. – Ed.) are crazy, then they will give an impetus to this process. This is the most terrible and dangerous.
The Belarusian dictator began to threaten the whole world with “consequences” if these ammunition burst on the positions of the Russian occupiers.
“As soon as these ammunition burst into the positions of the Russian troops, you will see: the answer will be a terrible lesson for the whole planet.. Russia has not only depleted uranium, you know this very well. Therefore, there is no need to start this trend in this war in terms of escalation,” he said.
Lukashenko said that “we need to move towards a peaceful settlement” of the war started by Russia in Ukraine.
“We must move, as Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping spoke, towards a peaceful settlement. Both the Russian leadership and one of the world’s largest states, China, and many others agree with this,” the dictator said.
Recall: on March 21, Britain announced its intention to transfer tank shells with depleted uranium to Ukraine, which better penetrate modern armor and become a real nightmare for Russian occupiers.
After that, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accused the West of allegedly escalating the war unleashed by Russia. And Russian dictator Putin issued that Moscow would “respond” if the UK took this step.
At the same time, Sky News wrote that the Russian Federation was deliberately trying to spread disinformation about British depleted uranium shells for Ukraine. At the same time, the British Ministry of Defense noted that they are standard weapons and have nothing to do with nuclear weapons. The British Army has been using this material in its shells for decades.
However, despite this, Putin deliberately tells the consumers of Russian propaganda that such actions supposedly herald a move by the West to supply Ukraine with weapons containing nuclear components.
Earlier it was reported that information about the provision of depleted uranium ammunition to Ukraine appeared on the website of the British Parliament. In Russia, after that they said that they would regard the use of such ammunition in Ukraine as a “dirty bomb”. What is the peculiarity of these ammunition, read in the material GLOBAL HAPPENINGS.
As GLOBAL HAPPENINGS reported, Lukashenko met with Iranian officials in Tehran on March 13 to expand bilateral ties and support sanctions relief. But in fact, he acted as a Kremlin vassal used to increase Russia’s cooperation with Iran, ISW analysts say.
