German media: Vostok-2018 is comparable to the largest operations of World War II

German newspaper Handelsblatt commented on the large-scale exercises of the Russian Armed Forces "Vostok-2018". As you know, these exercises are held in conjunction with the military of the People’s Liberation Army of China. German journalists, assessing the scale of the Russian-Chinese maneuvers, note that this scale is comparable to the largest operations of the Second World War.

Reuters writes that in this way "Russia sends a signal to the whole world."

The main idea of ​​the German edition is as follows:
Russia has actually turned Washington’s main fear into reality: military cooperation between Moscow and Beijing.

The experts, to whom the German publication refers, note that the Russian signal is that Russia is not isolated and is able to conduct constructive negotiations with major partners, including negotiations on cooperation in the military and military-technical fields.

It was also noted that Russia and China are working to deepen economic cooperation, which is also a kind of example for the United States on how to build relations with mutual consideration of interests in the modern world.

Recall that in the maneuvers "Vostok-2018" take part not only Russian and Chinese, but also Mongolian military personnel.

[Bull Terrier]

This is only the beginning of tantrums) now on this occasion they will start yelling to everyone who is not lazy) although it is curious to whom we threaten this time)))

[Ros 56]

Like this, to whom. The Mongols threaten France, China to everyone else, and we cover the rear. After all, the main thing for Nata is that no one is threatening anyone, but they are threatening us to shout louder, and the substitutes are inflating the censer to heaven. And the province went to write. And Masha Zakharova will again make excuses. But we must not justify ourselves, but give a good crack to some people, so that the hat flies off our heads, and warn us for the future, you’ll vanish again, break all relations and reconsider the borders. We will be silent, they will poke a finger at us, and we just need to break it so that there is nothing to poke, and others will beware.

Sure, there will be horse divers.

Yeah with combat underwater bows !

Putin is doing everything right, showing our peacefulness and gentleness. This disarms the hawks, does not give them an obvious reason to shout: - "Atu them, ATU!" Yes, and the foreign public, as long as we do not make sharp movements, treats us with understanding (sympathy, sympathy). Everyone wants to live in peace and not tremble for the life of their children, relatives and friends. This is the first.
Secondly, the economy of the country, which ranks 11th in the world in terms of GDP, will not be able to withstand a long-term armed conflict of high intensity. And this is as true as: "two + two Xs for two = SIX!" And to start a small "victorious" nuclear war on ETVD, growing into a general nuclear world war - well, somehow "not comme il faut"! Everyone wants to live a little longer, and you too!
Therefore, with tenacity worthy of a better application, we will smile and slowly pick the tunnel towards the bright DAY OF EXEMPTION from the hegemony of the exceptional ...
Third, in carrying out these maneuvers, we openly demonstrate "xy is xy"! on a large geopolitical chessboard. Trump's patrons must finally understand that NATO resources will not be enough against two Euro-Asian monsters! If they continue to persist in their "dolbo-cretinism", then we will only have to sign an agreement on friendship and mutual assistance between the PRC and the Russian Federation. But this narrows the room for maneuver for both countries. For after that the world will turn from a lot of polarity into a bipolar one! And then we will have to pull the Indians over to our side. And this is so tedious: "to drag a hippopotamus out of the swamp"!
Somehow, however.

[Ros 56]

Your peacefulness and kindness cost people, Russians, by the way, years in prison, and it’s illegal. It’s good to talk about this peacefulness while sitting on the couch. And why did you decide that to give a crack, it is necessarily military operations, I would write differently. And they would have thrown into the Crosses or Lefortovo, heels, another hegemony, would have sung differently. Lakham would be blocked off oxygen in the trading part for the demolition of monuments. In short, there would be a desire to stand up for one's own, and on whom to win back and the reasons for this can always be found.

And what kind of oxygen can we shut them off? Fancy it all ...

[Ros 56]

All trade with them, from the word at all.

[Livonetc]

From foreign trade with Poland, Russia has a surplus.
This is about 7 billion US dollars in our favor.

I understand you ... But in the international isolation due to elephant movements in the arena, in the current situation, I would not advise you to voluntarily climb! There are mn institutes where our politico-diplomatic methods protect their citizens. But, if you drove to the mn business level and decided to cut the money down the drain, then answer mn law to the fullest extent possible.
Another thing is that the Yankees steal our citizens in piracy and judge them according to their own laws, violating bilateral and um agreements to extradite criminals to the jurisdiction of the country of which the offender is a citizen. Here - yes, ama - radishes! and we don’t have any faith on them yet ... That is our weakness ... And the Yankees know about it. And this will continue to be done until we give them an impudent mug. And we can only do this by crawling out of our economic ass, at least into the six leading economies of the world.
Something like that, however.

[Ros 56]

I am glad that our people are so kind and sincere. Nobody is interested in the fact that our Butina and Yaroshenko are sitting at the striped ones. As soon as not mentioning their names to remember them, they immediately pushed cons. The main thing is to prove your "I" in the comments, it's small, but mine. Yes, the Slavs?

[parathyron]

"Secondly, the economy of the country, which ranks 11th in the world in terms of GDP, will not be able to withstand a long-term armed conflict of high intensity. And this is as true as:" two + two X for two = SIX! "
Well, this is the grandmother said in two. Maybe six, or maybe eight, how to count))) If eight, then ours will stand against the reverse, but they won't! If we take into account the strength of the spirit of our warrior when they get it, then 2X2 is not with them, but with us, they just have 2+

[nickname7]

the economy of the country, which occupies 11th place in the world in terms of GDP, will not be able to survive in a long armed conflict

What does the Russian economy have to do with it, if the elite in the Russian Federation does not live. The worst thing that will happen from the military conflict is that the excessively acquired will be arrested.

[Vita vko]

Vostok 2018 is just the beginning. We would like to hope that soon there will be exercises "Zapad" with training for the transfer of the Chinese army to Belarus and Kaliningrad.

We would like to be fed up that soon there will be exercises "Zapad" with training for the transfer of the Chinese army to Belarus and Kaliningrad.

No, not that. Why train and educate the Chinese for war in Europe? Let's not do this, let the East remain the East, the Chinese have "work for tonsils" there too.

[Vita vko]

Quote: svp67

No, not that.

So I’m sure that panic will begin in NATO and they will finally sit at the negotiating table to reduce armaments in Europe and force Ukraine to implement the Minsk agreements.

No, in the current conditions, this will lead to an increase in the total budget of NATO countries

[Bull Terrier]

Yes, the point is different) training is the tenth thing. The very fact of conducting joint exercises between us is a real hemorrhoids for striped. If in the coming years our factory and whales will also build some kind of joint factory or shipyard for the production of something from the theme of the military-industrial complex, it’ll probably burn in there!

[vladcub]

"for the production of something from the military-industrial complex" it would be very interesting.

[Eragon]

No, not that. Why train and educate the Chinese for war in Europe? Let's not do this, let the East remain the East, the Chinese have "work for tonsils" there too.

And this is also, or rather, a must. Practically all major Russian exercises, with the exception of the last "West", are reduced, in general, to one thing - the transfer of a mass of troops over long distances in the shortest possible time while maintaining their full combat capability (from wheels to battle). We started with the divisions, now we have actually reached the fronts. And the Americans drive the brigade around Europe for months, sometimes the roads are not like that, sometimes the bridges ... As the saying goes: sometimes the T-shirt is short, sometimes the horseradish is knee-deep.

[Mih1974]

It’s you in vain, just imagine the faces of the NATO people contemplating on our side the "yellow faces" of the Chinese on the tanks cutting and "small groups of 10 million" soldiers !!

[kenig1]

"West" will be held in 2021, no matter in which district the exercises are held, this year units are being transferred from the Southern Military District to Chita and Sakhalin.

units are being transferred to Chita and Sakhalin.

What works one way can work the other way.

[Boa kaa]

Quote: Vita VKO

Soon there will be exercises "West" with training for the transfer of the Chinese army to Belarus and Kaliningrad.

To begin with, it would not hurt to conduct joint maneuvers of the ships of the PRC Navy and our Mediterranean squadron in the southeastern part of Mediterranean. Yes, with a real launch of anti-ship missiles at a spaced target position, carrying out a long-term search operation of foreign submarines, a sudden "flyby" of YES and MRA with launches of CD along the coast (as an option!). This is so that the striped ambitions diminish, and their NATO partners have (finally) "clearing their minds" (c).
IMHO.

[ul_vitalii]

"German media:" East-2018 "is comparable to the largest operations of the Second World War"

Good memory, commendable.

[sleeve]

Well, not to say that this is a direct "partnership". Rather, "delayed" mutual assistance. It doesn't smell like a military alliance. The situation here is more complicated. We have too many "skeletons" with the "Yellow-Red Dragon" even in the public domain, and as people brought up we do not pull each other into our squabbles. But the third world is getting further ...

[Bull Terrier]

Shoigu already calls them allies. I don’t just think so. The military can always agree faster. In general, China is now a real boom in all of ours.

Why? I heard about food in the border zone. And what else can interest the Chinese so that they immediately "boom"?

[rotmistr60]

Fussed over. Of course, this is a signal to the collective west that it is necessary to talk with Russia on equal terms and at the same time agree on mutually beneficial conditions, and not to build the ultimate truth from oneself and constantly blame our country for what the West itself is to blame for.

[nickname7]

Of course, this is a signal to the collective west that it is necessary to talk with Russia on equal terms.

Did the oak collapse? With what a fright, they talk with the raw materials appendage on an equal footing?
They essentially have a roselite, with assets and yachts, is held hostage, the roselit will do everything that Uncle Sam tells them and does not pick it up.

You have universal plans: to force NATO to reduce arms in Europe with just one exercise. And suddenly the result of their panic will be the buildup of arms in Europe, what then?
There is another benefit from these exercises: "Russia and China are working on economic cooperation," and if we consider that China threatens American profits, there have been publications about this, it will be like a sledgehammer over crystal balls

[LeonidL]

Fearfully? Buy diapers!

[Dave36]

This is a reason to shout, Russia is an aggressor, Russia must be restrained .... Let's see Idlib and Donetsk ... they’re not laying idle there ..

[ANCIENT]

It is a pity that there are no North Koreans there, among the participating countries in the exercises! Would work out the sweeping of South Korea from the American occupiers! !!

[Evgenijus]

The modern world has changed. In Europe, they began to understand this. These realities of the new world order cannot accept and understand across the ocean. It turns out that the United States does not live in the real world, but under the hypnosis of its former military and economic power.

[bessmertniy]

The West, and, above all, the USA, did everything to ruin their relations with Russia. In their place came more normal relations with other countries - without sanctions, provocations, etc. It is another matter that Western democracies are filled with anger and the desire to sweep them off the map of the world. But not able to sweep.

[nickname7]

The modern world has changed

In addition to the Russian Federation, which does not change, remaining a raw materials appendage.

[_Kotegpushisteg_]

Kytay a reliable ally of Russia! in the event of a conflict with NATO, he, as a faithful ally, will protect the Russian Far East

[vanavatny]

and they clearly imagine the scale of the largest operations of the second world?

[Mountain shooter]

The main danger for the USA is the loss by the dollar of the status of the world currency and the loss of control over almost the entire money circulation of the world ... The military component of this process is just a derivative.

[Machete]

As far as I remember, several fronts at once took part in the "largest operations of the Second World War". And this is up to several million soldiers and tens of thousands of armored vehicles, aviation and artillery. Tens of thousands of each kind of troops.
And now?
And our "partners" from fear the roof goes?

[Slon_on]

Their "biggest operation" is Saving Private Ryan. And if it's no joke, the battles of El Alamein, they put on a par with the Battle of Stalingrad.

[rocket757]

So do not Dunkirk cite as an example everything! What a victory, such and heroes ..... and this is not at the expense of the courage of ordinary soldiers of all allied armies! The soldiers did their bloody work, many not sparing their lives! But the plans of politicians and their generals are a separate, sometimes very dirty topic.
Small people building grandiose plans, this is the trouble of all countries, nations .....

[bratchanin3]

In any business, the main thing is the organization, and in military battles this is the most important thing.

[rocket757]

And in military affairs there are no secondary tasks at all. Fighting capacity provides high-quality performance of a whole range of tasks!

[Kent0001]

The Germans already can’t cope with diapers ... nevertheless, Historical Memory is a serious thing. Who is next?

[Zomanus]

So what? This is already at the level of the fronts of learning.
Together with the Chinese we are going on the offensive ...
Oh, beautifull.)))
It’s a pity that we won’t be able to stir up such things in the sea, nothing.

[Evil 55]

The next step will be a military agreement on mutual assistance and protection from external aggression. Then they surely jam banana, all at once ..

[Prahlad]

It would be good if all this armada came to Ukraine!
