Increasing the army on 600 man will save Lithuania from Russia. Reflections Grybauskaite

68
Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite put her signature under the law providing for the "strengthening" of the Lithuanian army in connection with the "modern challenges". Recall that the Lithuanian authorities tell their people that the main challenge for Lithuania is the neighborhood with Russia. And in order to “resist potential Russian aggression”, official Vilnius decided to increase the size of the army.


The increase will be made on 600 people, of which 100 - recruits, the rest - contract servicemen. And those and others still have to "dial."

Increasing the army on 600 man will save Lithuania from Russia. Reflections Grybauskaite


For the implementation of plans to increase the number of army personnel from the state budget of the country it is planned to allocate (for defense) an additional about 36 million euros. Thus, each newly-built Lithuanian soldier, according to the Grybauskaite plan, will cost approximately 60 thousand euros per year. And by the year 2024 it is planned to increase additional costs already on 108-109 million euros.

All these attempts are connected with the requirements of the United States to increase military spending in order to meet NATO requirements (as is known, the requirements are 2% of GDP). A few years ago, in Lithuania, 1% of GDP was barely spent on military needs. Now - about 2 percent. By 2019, the plan is to overcome the psychological level, and by 2030, it is at all to reach 2,5% of GDP.

At the moment, Lithuania spends about 0,82 billion dollars a year for military purposes.

Ordinary Lithuanian citizens are openly perplexed about what will change in the country's defense capability if the size of the army is increased by 500-600 people.

            If Dalia puts Russia in the first place in the list of threats, then with these 600 soldiers it is necessary to strengthen the border with the Kaliningrad region. This results in 2 frontier guards for each of the 300 (with rounding) km of the border. Powerful, nothing to say ... what

              She’s not going to strengthen anything, she wants to grab herself from the handouts of the EU, and if she doesn’t want to fight Russia, she doesn’t need to spend 2% on NATU, then they won’t give anything ...

        Dalia Grybyne let go no different from many other EU members, for such is the political elite in Europe today. A childless Macron with his grandmother's wife, a childless Merkel, a childless May, about whom in England herself they say that the peak of her intellectual abilities is a game of sudoku, etc. and so on

            There is no sprat in Lithuania. Lithuania was famous in Soviet times for meat and dairy products. Indeed, they smoked homemade smoked meats or chopped meat in a restaurant. But time has passed, no products are needed in the EU, and shipping to Russia is not solid. Those who are more smart - they fled to the Kaliningrad region, opened enterprises with Russian names and produce ordinary sausages.

    Ordinary Lithuanian citizens are openly perplexed about what will change in the country's defense capability if the size of the army is increased by 500-600 people.
    I explain that NATO will have another battalion there. Of course, 600 bayonets will not create an advantage in the “defense of the country” against the backdrop of powerful Russia, but the multinational contingent of NATO in the Baltic states will feel more confident than before and brazen.
    The fact is that they are slowly but systematically building up their capabilities and are not going to defend themselves at all, but are going to attack. But here it’s fashionable to “giggle” such problems, such is the psychology of ostriches, what can you do ...

      What is more confident? That if earlier they simply would not have been paid attention to in the event of a hypothetical war, now will this pair of visits of the SU-25 link be planned for this formidable force? The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation conducts training on the transfer from the region to the region of tens of thousands of military personnel and hundreds of pieces of equipment, and when the Iskanders were brought to the Kaliningrad region for the first time, NATO knew about it only when they showed on our TV what kind of contingent there is in the Baltic I would call it a curfew platoon, from strength

    Ordinary Lithuanian citizens are openly perplexed about what will change in the country's defense capability if the size of the army is increased by 500-600 people.. And you and your Dalia have not been asked for a long time how many million euros you need to allocate from your treasury in the interests of the real owners of all the Baltic states. fool

    Here are some clowns! And it’s good how they settled down! They will be able to fool the EURO-fool there for a very long time. But we still come "wash your feet in the Indian Ocean"! )) They have said a lot already ... unfounded. And you have to answer for the words. It seems to me that we are cramming theirs "saber" into their same popen hagen by the very hilt, and even there we will also arrange wellness procedures for some newly appointed from NATO - otherwise they won’t calm down.
