Earlier, Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite said that Russia in the course of this exercise "will demonstrate preparation for war with the West."

The recent hysteria inspired by individual “experts” about the allegedly possible occupation of Belarus by Russian troops is no more than an attempt by some marginal structures to get political dividends or to increase their rating by exploiting the topic of Belarusian-Russian relations,
Ravkov said the publication of "Sat. Belarus today. "

He recalled that by decision of the presidents of the Russian Federation and Belarus, the exercise "West" is held once in 2, alternately in both countries. “Russia is a strategic ally, with which Belarus is building a common defense space, and the upcoming maneuvers are one of the forms of preparation of the united group,” the minister said.

He called the military cooperation of the parties "one of the drivers of the development of relations between the two countries" and noted that it is "in this area that level of cooperation that should be between the fraternal peoples" has been achieved.

According to Ravkov, “the plan of the exercises, the areas of their conduct, all movements of troops are developed and agreed with the Belarusian side.”

There is no threat to western states either, since the exercise is defensive in nature, not directed against third countries and only solves strategic deterrence tasks,
he said, adding that during the maneuvers Belarus will provide openness to partners and provide information to the public.

    The Lithuanian statement could be completely ignored.
    It’s not strange that 2 military blocs with a common border are preparing for war.
    The only point is that NATO is expanding to the detriment of our security. And therefore, we definitely need to hone the defensive measures (even if they are offensive in nature). It is necessary to carry out the planned exercises in full. Annoying all the enemies.

      Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite stated that Russia, during the West 2017 exercise, "will demonstrate preparations for a war with the West."

      Correctly. Absolutely logical. It’s only you who, to defend against Iran, put in your missile defense

    Why not think like in chess?
    But father with Putin (Russia), it seems, is at odds? Okay. First and second.
    The first is that father really is at odds, and Russia needs this territory. The potato is good there, and there are enough places for the location of its military bases, but the father settled down. Under the guise of the exercises “Zapad-2017”, it’s possible that the father’s “died”, they say, was with his officers at the NP, but the Belarusian mortar man didn’t set the corner. Anything can happen. After the father, the reins of government should be taken into the hands of the Belorussian general, a strong hand, completely dependent on the Kremlin.
    The second - indeed the people will go out into the street. They want to live, and not bow to the oligarchs. It will be worse for Russia than Kiev.
    There is a third option - a cunning game of secret treaties. No time to paint

    And I ask you to note: the schedule of exercises is known to absolutely everyone who needs it.
    That is, from the east and from the west. In the General Staff, we also have mattress covers and under-mattresses providing a schedule of their teachings - what would have happened.
    Therefore, a howl on the topic of a new round of aggression or a show of force is nothing more than a howl on a schedule that covers the unplanned actions of the West a year earlier. Namely: the emergence of new contingents, an increase in the number of equipment ... This was not planned or announced, which means that this can be considered an act of aggression. But, in order to somehow erase the effect, dust starts on the topic of evil Russians, etc.
    Let yourself howl.
    They just haven’t seen evil Russian for a long time .... :) Miss you, go :)

    Happy holiday to ALL.

    even trolllepeteks - the same with the holiday - if there weren’t "Russian aggressors" you wouldn’t have a job :) So have a conscience and join in the congratulations, bastards :)
