NATO will begin to expand its efforts in the fight against the group of the IG (banned in the Russian Federation) in Iraq, including conducting its own training of Iraqi military personnel, reports RIA News Statement by the Secretary General of the Alliance Jens Stoltenberg.

Stoltenberg: NATO will provide more assistance to Iraq in the fight against terrorists




The training of (military) in Iraq is limited, but these scales vary. And I am confident that NATO can and should do more in this direction. This is only the beginning, then we will make an assessment, we will work with the allies and see what else can be done,
Stoltenberg told the Wall Street Journal.

According to the newspaper, the NATO mission to train the Iraqi military "will include from 10 to 17 staff, most of whom will be in the country permanently, the rest - to join them on a rotational basis."

At the same time, “Stoltenberg said that NATO assistance would be more substantial than the deployment of its officers,” the newspaper writes.

“NATO support for the coalition implies many different elements,” the Secretary General added.

Earlier in the White House reported that Donald Trump on Sunday will hold a telephone conversation with Stoltenberg.

      At one time, one important person identified Russia as a threat to peace No. 2, jihadists No. 3, and Eboll virus came first.
      And I didn’t hear something that one of them denied it.

        17 employees instead of 10, of course sounds threatening for Daesh militants. After such news, they all quickly get scared and scatter wherever their eyes look.

          Either such a rush when posting an article, or NATO really, to put it mildly, does not understand the situation and what efforts are needed to destroy the barmalei.

            Indeed, NATO, to put it mildly, do not understand the situation and what efforts are needed to destroy the barmalei.

            And they don’t have such a goal, they don’t need to destroy barmaleys. They need to "help".

        Eboll is not mentioned at all (apparently with the departure of the dark-skinned one, they have already won), the jihadists have migrated to the category of “Onineubians,” and the opposition .... Russia remains, in danger category No. 1.

    “Stoltenberg said NATO assistance would be more substantial than deploying its officers.”
    Send OSCE observers there, there is no civilized Europe and there is a short conversation with spies and saboteurs.

    During the assault on Mosul, they "helped" to lay about 27 thousand troops of the Iraqi army. Apparently the same help will continue.

    As long as there is oil in Iraq there will be help, who would doubt it.

    So, he doesn’t determine the policy. NATO allocates money for maintenance, but the USA. Well, how much they scraped across the EU and how much happened. What can he blame for this?

      So then it is. Just a talking head .... They already trained "specialists" for the SSA in Syria. They trained as many as 50 people, of whom 5 (doubles) jumped to the SSA, and the rest (excellent students) migrated along the way to the Ishilov’s ranks along with weapons, probably because they were prepared for the IS. At the same time, 500 million dollars were spent on preparation. 10 lyam, for one bearded "student" head !!! Maybe just this "NVP" is beneficial to someone personally (like McCain)?
