A German military expert warned that around 360,000 Russian troops are now stationed in Belarus. Retired Colonel Roderich Kiesewetter told German broadcaster N-TV that Russia is maintaining two combat-ready army corps in the NATO-neighbouring country, raising concerns over regional security. The buildup comes alongside reports that Moscow has deployed the nuclear-capable Oreshnik missile system in Belarus, which President Alexander Lukashenko said entered combat duty on December 17. The developments come as Belarus seeks limited engagement with the United States, even as Lukashenko reiterates Minsk’s close military and political ties with Russia.
