Lukashenko claims Ukraine would be "very happy" if Russia used nuclear weapons
According to Ukrainska Pravda, Alexander Lukashenko, the self-proclaimed President of Belarus, "stated that if russia utilised nuclear weapons, Ukraine would be "very happy" because the Kremlin would no longer have any allies."
"The worry is that escalation on Ukraine’s part is an attempt to force Russia to take asymmetric actions. Let's consider the usage of nuclear weapons. I am confident that Ukraine would be pleased if Russia or we utilised tactical nuclear weapons there. That would bring them joy"
they cite Lukashenko.
Lukashenko claims that utilising nuclear weapons would deprive Russia and Belarus of allies.
"Then we'd probably have few allies left. In general, there would be no sympathetic countries left. Because they are involved in what is happening," said Lukashenko.
"Second, it's nuclear weapons. We have already formed a certain image negative to these nuclear weapons. So they want to push [us to do it – ed.]," the Belarusian leader added.

🗣🐵 If Putin does not make concessions and refuses to negotiate except on his own terms, Kyiv will have no choice but to remain in the Kursk region and move forward to increase pressure on Moscow. In anticipation of such a scenario, Ukraine has created a "military commandant's office" in the occupied areas as a demonstration of a new front line opposing Moscow, — The Times
