I would not be so quick to dismiss it. Belarus claims that it still is an independent country. If it uses a nuclear weapon then it cannot be treated as if Russians used it directly. At least in Russia it would be easier for propaganda to push the story that Lukashenko did it.

What!? Of course it can, and would be. This isn't a game. Nobody cares about tissue thin fig leaves when it comes to nukes. Belarus has zero ability to make its own. Any nukes it uses that came from Russia would be completely Russian responsibility. If it cooperated that might earn it a few nukes back amongst the thousands aimed at Russia but that's it.

.... Well, I didn't think about that side really. Goddamn. Are we really going there? Recon I should get in the car and head for the north already? ;)

For me is the opposite, time to head south and leave Vilnius, got Minsk at only 100mi from here
