Lithuanian Defense Ministry: Italian pilots arriving in Siauliai will ensure the security of the Baltic states

45

The Lithuanian Ministry of Defense published information that a group of Italian servicemen was received at the airfield in Siauliai, who, as it was announced, "will serve in the format of the NATO mission to ensure the security of the Baltic states." We are talking about Italian pilots who, according to the latest data, will replace British and Spanish Air Force pilots in Lithuania.

Ministry of Defense of Lithuania:



The Italians will defend the Baltic airspace using 4 EF-2000 EuroFighter fighters.

The rotation of Italians will last longer than usual - 8 months instead of the average six.

It is reported that Italian military pilots will not be alone in patrolling the Baltic airspace. From one of the Estonian airfields (Amari) aircraft of the German Air Force will rise for patrol.

Lithuanian Defense Minister Raimundas Karoblis:

The Baltic Air Patrol Mission is one of the best examples of NATO unity, demonstrating the Alliance's commitment to security. This is also evidenced by the readiness of the Italian and German air forces to carry out the mission to protect the airspace in the Baltic region in accordance with the plan, despite the coronavirus pandemic. For our part, we strive to provide our partners with the best conditions for carrying out a mission from the Siauliai Air Force Base.

It is reported that from January to August, NATO Air Force aircraft rose to intercept and identify foreign (primarily Russian) aircraft 80 times.

Let's remind that earlier the President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko accused the NATO countries of militarizing the eastern flank. According to Lukashenka, in Belarus "the clanging of their tanks". Vilnius responded with a statement that Lukashenka" is looking for an external enemy with an attempt to divert public attention to foreign states. "

      Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov at a press conference following a meeting with Belarusian Foreign Minister Vladimir Makei said that on the territory of Belarus there are about 200 trained extremists from Ukraine.

      Creeping "absorption" - there were Georgian snipers on the Ukrainian "Maidan", Ukrainian troops were sent to the Belarusian tsereushniki. Slavic appearance, it will be very difficult to catch.

        Wonderful are your deeds, Lord, your conscience - the "voice of God" does not allow you to sleep peacefully:
        "Foreign Minister of Belarus Vladimir Makei, in the course of negotiations with Sergey Lavrov, expressed gratitude to Russia for "a balanced and extremely clear" position on the situation in the republic... He also noted the role of Moscow in stabilizing the situation in Belarus. "

        That's exactly how it is! Over there - in the background in the photo to the article - three women in military uniform are already at the ready - they are looking out for grooms or lovers among the Italians! Then they, together with Italians or other foreigners, will disappear from the country!

      Better speak up on the topic. And the topic is "security of the Baltic states". I draw your attention to the fact that the title is already a provocative cliché of anti-Russian propaganda. If we take the factual side of the matter, then these "Baltic countries" were pushed into "free floating" by Moscow even under the "Gorby" and "Eltsy". They immediately sold their independence, became a training ground and a bridgehead. NATO and the Italians show you that we are holding you for "this place". Are you talking about girls.
      Security problems of the Russian Federation - how to ensure security on the western border. In 1940, Stalin had to push the border from Leningrad by force. And these pilots should be thrown back: set Turkey against Italy, or maybe arm Libya ... I don't know. For this we have ministers of defense and foreign affairs.

        "Security" from whom? "Free swimming, Gorby, dace, venality ..." _ so obvious, already boring. And why do you consider it necessary to direct or control the course of my thoughts and speech? All on the topic: why fly around 2 sq. Km? "Safety"? Perhaps it is better to talk not about these flawed ones, but about the training of the NATO Air Force at our former training grounds and near our borders, against our Aerospace Forces, in particular the air defense?

    Vilnius responded with a statement that Lukashenka "is looking for an external enemy with an attempt to divert public attention to foreign states."

    This is your invariable "external enemy" - Russia .. But since you invite "defenders" from outside, it means that your men are not able to protect your public, but you are worried about the Belarusian public.
    Amazing caring for neighbors.

    in the Lithuanian Siauliai, in the Estonian Emari - luxurious military airfields, with all the infrastructure, in
    Estonian Paldiski is a training center with a nuclear reactor for submarine officers, everything was left by Gorbachev with Yeltsin. There are now NATO airfields, only two or three hundred kilometers. from the Russian border.
    And how many more airfields were left in Germany. And note, without any war - just because of betrayal
    these two Judas. Well, one is already being fried in hell under the ground, and they are building Yeltsin Centers on the ground, while the other is still walking freely on the ground and the Gorbachev Foundation has. And NATO planes
    in those airfields that were abandoned by order of these traitors. Even during the Second World War and then retreating
    they did not leave anything to the enemy. What could have been evacuated, what could not have been blown up, if only the enemy
    did not get it. And then, right on a platter, the enemy was presented ...

    The Baltic Air Patrol Mission is one of the best examples of NATO unity, demonstrating the Alliance's commitment to security

    And it seems to me that the mission demonstrates the inability and unwillingness of the Balts to fulfill their obligations .. there is no reason to worry, I hope the NATO people will think that they are being bred like suckers, in addition, and beaten regularly, although they are cheap girls with low social responsibilityof course compensate for some discomfort

    Yes, their "exploits" were small. But the fact that Russia saved Italians from both the French and the Germans is an indisputable fact. You can also recall our great generals, A.V. Suvorov, for example, with his Italian campaign in 1799, and the liberation of Rome by the marines of Admiral Ushakov from Napoleonic thugs at almost the same time, and much more in the XNUMXth century, and in the century XX. But it is not in the nature of Europeans to pay with gratitude for good and salvation. If these "mafiamen" violate the Russian border, they will have to be shot down in any case, even if they return back to the "forest brothers" at the same minute, i.e. over their territory. And these so-called pilots should know about this: if you violated the Russian border, or "lost" a missile, you will be shot down. Enough with almonds with all this Euro-dump that has smelled prey.
