All OSCE countries are notified of the exercise "West-2017"

9
All OSCE participating States received advance notification of the conduct of the Russian-Belarusian exercise "West-2017", reports RIA News a message from the commander of the troops of the Western District, Colonel General Andrei Kartapolov.



In accordance with international agreements, preliminary notification of military activities (conducting the West-2017 exercise) was sent to all OSCE participating States, and in August international observers received invitations
said the commander in an interview with the newspaper "Red Star".

He noted that the “West-2017” doctrine, “like all previous ones, is absolutely open to both international observers and journalists.”

According to Kartapolov, “the total number of personnel, weapons and military equipment used for the training will comply with the provisions of the Vienna Document 2011 of the year”, and statements by several European states that more than 100 thousand people were involved in the maneuvers “without any -or evidence. "

Just now in the Armed Forces of Russia in full swing is the summer period of training. Of course, all the formations and units are on the ranges and perform exercises, conduct battalion and company exercises,
he said.

Recall, the Russian-Belarusian doctrine will be held from 14 to 20 of September, it employs up to 12,7 thousand troops, about 70 aircraft and about 680 units of military equipment.

Deputy Minister of Defense Alexander Fomin earlier stated that the teaching was defensive in nature. Versions of a number of Western politicians that a “springboard for the occupation of Lithuania” is being prepared at this event have nothing to do with reality.

      But I’ve thought about it, why not really squeeze the Baltic states .... The flight time of missiles from there to St. Petersburg is about 7 minutes ... why are they better than Finland in 1940? laughing

      Grybauskaite is not in danger, she will rummage under the mattress, get a party card and put on a T-shirt with GDP, appoint her the Head of the Baltic Federal District ... Europe will whimper for decency, but will breathe freely, finally these rogues were removed from their boiler allowance ... laughing

    Europe was frightened of the exercises because not so long ago, Russia demonstrated the capabilities of its armed forces, which were previously cardboard in the understanding of the West. And since they usually judge by themselves, we are credited with aggressive plans that only they have in their heads. Hence the howl in the media.

    They (NATO) and their henchmen believe that Russia conducts offensive exercises, and NATO with non-adherents (not members of NATO) is exclusively defensive (today a Ukrainian said on a talk show). Although every military person knows and understands that both defense and offensive can be practiced on exercises.
