Rumors about the involvement of Russian border guards in guarding the border with Afghanistan have been denied in Tajikistan

9

Russian border guards will not be involved in protecting the Tajik-Afghan border, this issue is not on the agenda. This was announced by the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Tajikistan, Sirojiddin Mukhriddin.

A press conference of the Tajik Foreign Ministry was held in Dushanbe, during which the Foreign Minister denied rumors about the return of Russian border guards to the border with Afghanistan in connection with the situation there due to the Taliban offensive (the movement was recognized as terrorist and prohibited in Russia).



According to Sirojiddin Mukhriddin, a group of Russian border advisers continues to work on the territory of the republic, no additional forces are planned. According to him, Tajikistan has enough of its own forces to control the border, besides, Russia and Tajikistan cooperate in the military sphere not only in a bilateral format, but also through the CSTO, within the framework of which an assistance program has been adopted to strengthen the border with Afghanistan.

Earlier it was reported that Russia has allocated funds for the construction of a new checkpoint and border outpost on the border of Tajikistan and Afghanistan. As a result, Tajik border guards should receive an infrastructure with modern technology and equipment.

Meanwhile, fears are expressed that the Taliban will soon be able to take full control of the border with Tajikistan, as it has already done in the Chinese and Indian sectors. At the beginning of July, they controlled up to 80% of the Afghan-Tajik border. In connection with the current situation, the Tajik authorities turned to the CSTO for help.

        Without the Russian Federation, the former republics can only beg for money and shout at every corner how they fed Russia and the entire USSR was only holding on to them. That they themselves are all independent and independent, just give money and a discount on gas and weapons at domestic prices, and open the market, Schaub without import duty! In which case, be sure to provide military and financial assistance!

        Without the help of Russia, these "independents" will very quickly lose their independence and everything that has remained undisturbed since the times of the USSR and the Russian Empire in general.
        The tone of the "conversation" and interaction with them must be changed.
        To fight in full for help, military and economic, to change those who dare to speak or even do something physically obscene to Russia.
        Unworthy to speak and generally twitch somewhere. Not earned in 30 years. Enough.

        Colleague, if only THIS!. leave the house, look around, the news of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the FSB of the Russian Federation (it is time for the indigenous citizens of the Russian Federation to protect themselves from them or not to interfere). What has changed with the USSR, now they contain THEM there and in the Russian Federation, previously they violated the outrage at home, now in the Russian Federation, previously retired (their Indian hut - to the figs), they (republics) contributed at least something to health, and now there we keep and mat capital (new Russians and citizenship are relatives) and then there are pensions, work for guests (Khusnulin does not "have enough" ANOTHER 5 ml. guests for renovation across the Russian Federation) The fact that THEM is already for 10 mln In the Russian Federation and only illegal immigrants, see the requirement of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation to the CIS countries to take THEM out. How did it end ?!
        And the syllable of GDP, that in the Russian Federation 6-5,6 mln of native Russians are unemployed and how many are unregistered, and with a possible prepense without a pension, who are being driven out in connection with the coronavirus. The opinion is personal. Correct. Maybe we have an "iron curtain" on the border and, as before, crowds of illegal immigrants do not walk across the Russian Federation? belay

      I wonder how they will guard the border? They will send out outfits, set up patrols ..., something is hard to believe in it. Most likely, they will organize possible corridors to the adjacent side.

        But this is a must and they will take tribute .. Afghanistan is still a full-fledged state, oh, how far away ..! The new generation needs to be taught everything, after all, there was a tribal system ... the USSR tried, but we were not allowed to finish the job, Gorbch had to leave and handed over everything, just to show off with Raika in the west ...

      Without Russia, military specialists, weapons, equipment and money.
      As well as a military base.
      They won't hold the border themselves.
