American edition: "West-2021" showed Russia's readiness for war with NATO

The large-scale strategic exercises Zapad-2021, which took place at the training grounds in Russia and Belarus, showed Russia's readiness for a military confrontation with NATO. This is the conclusion reached by the author of an article for the American edition of The National Interest, Mark Episkopos.

Russia and Belarus are deepening their military ties more and more, as exemplified by the large-scale joint strategic exercises Zapad-2021, which took place on the territory of the two countries, the author writes. According to the results of the exercises, the Russian Ministry of Defense stated that the Russian and Belarusian armies could in a short time create interspecific groupings and plan military operations in any direction.

Episkopos emphasizes that nominally "West 2021" was not directed against any particular country, but in fact Moscow and Minsk worked together to repel the offensive of NATO forces.

The exercises were held simultaneously on the territory of the two countries, they were attended by up to 200 thousand military personnel, 80 aircraft and helicopters, almost 800 combat vehicles, including 290 tanks, 240 artillery pieces and 15 ships. During the maneuvers, the Russian army used its military innovations, including combat robots, drums Drones and other military equipment.

As a result of the exercises, it became clear that military cooperation between Russia and Belarus is only deepening and may become even closer in the future. The maneuvers showed that Russia is quite ready for a war with NATO.

Such statements were appreciated in the Baltic countries, calling on the alliance to strengthen its positions on its eastern flank.

And who doubted? Already after 08.08.08, it became clear that there should be an army, and an army such that no one doubted its abilities. Syria showed that it worked ... The NATO military appreciated it. And not only NATO members. The same Taliban. The first, breaking their legs, rushed to assure Moscow that a speck of dust would not fall on Russian diplomats ...
And now the teachings. Impressive scale, organization ... That's the result. Check it out, enemies ...

So this is which side to look at!
Simple and clear, no longer a hint ... sit at home and mind your own business! Themselves, your violent, in the necessary institutions determine and you will be NOW!

[barclay]

Just "violent" they need, and with a certain degree of freedom. But how to sell old weapons and produce new ones?

So-so old weapons to take, they will not / cannot! means violent, conflicts, they need somewhere there ... that is. to send their violent somewhere there? Here are just THEIR violent, they prefer to sit in gay parliaments and other local parliaments, governments !!! Bad option, dangerous.
Those. geyropeyskiene can cope with YOURSELF in the house, and climb to advise / teach us, and everyone else ... completely crazy!

If you sit still, there will be no war. None of the NATO border countries is of interest to Russia as a trophy of war.

[Olezhek]

Based on the results of the exercises, it became clear that military cooperation between Russia and Belarus is only deepening and in the future it may become even closer.

Common phrases are good, just great, only Poland is deploying American troops on its territory,
and Belarus is categorically against the placement of Russian ones.

So so-so "cooperation".

[KCA]

American troops in Pshekia are not a strategic necessity, but a way to suck up once again, will the troops be deployed there? The fact that the Russian Army is capable of transferring 100-200 to Pshekia within a few hours, or more than thousands of soldiers and equipment is beyond doubt, aviation, for example, is it worth basing in Belarus, 5 minutes to fly less? If absolutely byada, the TU-95 and TU-160 do not need to fly anywhere, they took off near Engels and retired immediately, the X-101 and 102 5000 + km range, and even the old Kh-55SM 2500 km, X-555 2000 km

American troops in pshekia

Are you writing from Ukraine?
There is such a country - Poland.

The fact that the Russian Army is capable of transferring 100-200 to Pshekia within a few hours

If Lukashenka allows it.

I am writing from the Moscow region, the country is such, formally, Poland, but in fact it’s pshekia

Regardless of the conduct of the exercises, one must always be ready for an attack by external forces (NATO, the United States) and internal forces (all sorts of Gorbachevs, Shevardnadzes, Yeltsins, the fifth column, various NGOs, foreign agents, bulk, etc.) ... these threats will be exist permanently.

[Olezhek]

Russia and Belarus are increasingly deepening military ties, an example of which

no examples
After the exercise, the Russian troops drove back (under the close supervision of the zmagarou)
And the Americans stayed in Poland.

[carstorm 11]

Well, they didn't plan to stay there. What are you talking about now in general?) The army of the Republic of Belarus must fulfill its functions within the framework of the agreements. In the event of the outbreak of hostilities against it, the transfer of units from the Russian Federation will not take much time. And what the states in Poland are doing is let the Poles decide for themselves. This contingent is not a special problem in the military plan.

[Olezhek]

Well, they didn't plan to stay there. What are you talking about now?)

They were not particularly invited to stay there.

And what the states in Poland are doing is let the Poles decide for themselves.

And the Poles are real allies for the United States.

This contingent is not a special problem militarily.

For Lukashenko's Great Army? Which budget is less than that of the Lithuanian one?

[carstorm 11]

Logic fire) Why invite? It seems to lick a soft spot like the Poles in the Republic of Belarus are not willing. For what?) Did the presence of the American military in Georgia help a lot?) Your real allies have not passed a month as the same allies were poured down the toilet in front of the whole world. The army of the Republic of Belarus is small. This is true. The Russian army stands behind it alone. Which can arrive there in hours. And beat your head in. An ally is not the one who places troops on your territory. This is the one who will fight for her. The states have shown that they will do it for their allies. But you can believe it until you're blue in the face. Reality was seen by the entire planet. Feet in hand and run.

And the Poles are real allies for the United States.

"The haberdasher and the cardinal are great strength" - it has been said many times. Of course, the Americans will fight Russia to the last Pole.

so what preamble did the Americans have before the statement that Russia showed its readiness for war with NATO - "damn it" or "God forbid" ...?

In this regard, they have long been impotence.

I am glad, colleague, that in your bold fantasies you have already utterly defeated the Polish-American group of forces, but for self-development I advise you to study the course of events of the war of the three eights.

Olezhek, I have nothing personal to you, but along the way, judging by the estimates for your posts, today is not your day. Therefore, I propose to disperse like ships at sea.
By the way, don’t consider it impudent, coffee helps. But not alcohol.

[Olezhek]

judging by the ratings for your posts,

And here the shobla of the Belarusian Lukashenka trolls feed themselves.
But, colleague, don't worry
It won't be long.
Very soon im khan.

Do you really think that the opinion of citizens who are able to make a living by pressing
on the minus on the Internet - is this an argument ?? I feel sorry for you.

You will not have any other "judging"?

as the famous saying goes - if you want peace, get ready for war, then get it and sign it :)

Gentlemen, Belarusian trolls are like a Russian resource.
I understand perfectly well that this is the job, but it is precisely for this that you are not loved

As many as 0 Belarusian soldiers went to Syria and Central Asia after the well-known events
and 0 officers
And here - so in droves ...

in fact, Moscow and Minsk worked together reflection offensive forces of NATO.

It turns out that we are not threatening all Poland and the Baltic states? Don't we sharpen our bayonets at night ?!
Well, I don’t play like that! (WITH)

Just compare: the United States has a rather powerful ally - Poland, on which they did not spend money

Russia spent $ 120 billion on Belarus, for which it acquired only ... a crowd of Internet trolls from the Lithuanian spill, capable of hitting the minus

this is the geopolitics.

Mister graphomaniac, there are things that need to be "just done", regardless of anything. For Belarus, in fact, there was a cold war, and the war, as you know, requires a lot of money. And God only knows how much money it would cost us in the end if the Republic of Belarus turned into another "Berag Nezalezhnai Kosti", as a territory to the south.

[Olezhek]

...Yes! We know how to fight! But we don’t want the soldiers to fall in battle on their bitter land again ...
