12:31 pm
refused to place nuclear weapons on our territory and withdrew them, for this we were promised respect for sovereignty, independence, territorial integrity, non-use of military force and economic pressure. all this was recorded in the budapest memorandum in december 1994. well, what we see today is that everything is broken. aggressive policy unfriendly states, economic, political, sanctions pressure, of course, in such conditions we had to
12:32 pm
react, at the request of the president, we carried out work to place non-strategic nuclear weapons on our territory, this is our effective response to the aggressive... policies of those unfriendly to us states, we hope that the leaders of these states will hear and stop escalating this situation, also thanks to the deployment of nuclear weapons on our territory, we have received a full arsenal of all means in order to inflict unacceptable damage on a potential aggressor, this is... not nuclear blackmail or intimidation, this is an opportunity to protect our state, to ensure peace for our people, it was on the basis of this logic that we
