Lukashenko boasts: "The bombs are three times more powerful than those (dropped on) Hiroshima & Nagasaki."
By Tyler Durden: President Alexander Lukashenko has confirmed in fresh remarks to Russian state television that Belarus has begun taking delivery of Russian tactical nuclear weapons which had earlier been promised by President Vladimir Putin.
Lukashenko in remarks to Rossiya-1 TV channel boasted that the tactical nukes are three times more powerful than the atomic bombs dropped by the United States in World War II on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
"We have missiles and bombs that we have received from Russia," Lukashenko confirmed in the interview, which was also carried by Belarus' Belta state news agency.
"The bombs are three times more powerful than those (dropped on) Hiroshima and Nagasaki," he added, in footage which appeared to feature a military storage facility in the background.
