The Danish press came out with material about the "Soviet plan to seize Denmark"
The Soviet Union at the head of the Warsaw Pact countries, in the event of the outbreak of the Third World War, was ready to attack Denmark and destroy it. As Mikael Erz Christiansen writes in an article for the Danish edition of DR, only six days were given to destroy Denmark.
According to the author, shortly after the fall of the Berlin Wall in Poland, a Soviet plan to seize Denmark in the event of the outbreak of World War III was found in the archives. According to this plan, dating back to 1970, the USSR and the countries of the Warsaw Pact, including Poland, which was also part of this bloc, were to participate in the attack on Denmark.
The war was going to be the most cruel: atomic bombs, more than 100 thousand soldiers, thousands tanks and warships. According to the plan, everything was given only six days
- writes Christiansen.
So, according to the plan of the Russians, reflected in the found plan, the seizure had to take place as follows: On the first day, Soviet troops, with the support of East German and Polish, move from the territory of the GDR towards West Germany. In case of strong resistance, tactical atomic bombs are used.
On the second day, Warsaw Pact forces reach Kiel and prepare to enter Danish territory. At this time, NATO forces are gathering in the land of Schleswig-Holstein. Denmark, as a NATO ally, must delay the advance of the Russians, so the United States must transfer nuclear weapon from warehouses in Europe. This should delay Soviet troops until NATO forces arrive.
On the third day, "the situation is heating up, and the situation in Denmark is becoming more acute," the author writes. Soviet troops with the support of the allies are trying to penetrate the territory of Denmark. In case of strong resistance, the Russians will drop several more atomic bombs.
The infantry will arrive on the march, additional forces will be thrown out by aircraft. Troopers will land at Esbjerg
says Christiansen.
On the fourth day, Soviet, East German and Polish troops finally overcome the resistance on the border and advance north through Jutland and the island of Funen. They are going to Zeeland - the most important target of the Warsaw Pact, since there are guns that control the exit from the Baltic Sea.
On the fifth day, Soviet troops advanced far in the offensive and captured strategically important targets, including Karup airbase and the Regan West bunker in the Rold Skov forest, where the Danish government was hiding. The Danish army is pulling together for the big battle for Zealand. The warships were withdrawn from the shores of Eastern Europe and headed for Zealand.
The time of atomic bombs is coming. (...) five nuclear explosions were inflicted over Zealand, two over Copenhagen. Another blow will be struck at the city of Holbeck to disable the battery that protects Zealand. Another atomic bomb will clear the Køge Bay for the landing
- the author claims.
With the last atomic bomb, the Russians will strike at the Stevnsfortet fortress and destroy the guns aimed at the Baltic Sea. Thus, they will clear space for an amphibious assault force of 25 thousand people.
On the sixth day, Jutland and Funen are under the control of the Warsaw Pact forces, Zeeland is bombed to smithereens, Soviet troops land about 25 thousand soldiers in Køge Bay. The enemy is dropping airborne troops. The infantry is advancing on Zealand from Fune.
Danish soldiers cannot resist them, Denmark is defeated and completely comes under the control of the Warsaw Pact. It was such a plan to seize Denmark that was developed and kept in the archives until it was discovered, the author sums up.
But for some reason the Danish press does not want to talk about NATO plans to invade the USSR ...
