The Latvian Defense Ministry warned drivers about the inadmissibility of obstructing the movement of military convoys

The regular NATO military exercises are being held at the Latvian military training ground Adazi from 21 to 23 October. This time, during the exercise, the use of artillery and armored vehicles is being worked out. This is the Iron Spear 2021 military exercise.

The military personnel of the motorized rifle brigade of the Latvian ground forces and NATO combat groups from the foreign military contingent stationed in the Baltic States were involved in the maneuvers at the Adazi training ground.

The Latvian military command reports that the main purpose of the maneuvers is “to improve the interaction and compatibility of the Latvian and allied armed forces, as well as to perform joint combat missions related to the use of armored vehicles, including Tanks and BMP ".

Military personnel from a number of NATO countries participate in maneuvers on the territory of Latvia: Poland, USA, Canada, Britain, Czech Republic, Italy, Slovakia, Slovenia, Albania, Spain, etc.

It is reported that maneuvers during the exercise are carried out both during the day and at night. In addition to ground vehicles, planes and helicopters are involved.

The Latvian command, in connection with the live-fire exercises, asked for an apology about the inhabitants of the surrounding territories "due to the increased noise level."

One of the announcements concerns Latvian drivers:

To the attention of drivers! When seeing military equipment on a road, it is important to observe traffic rules, as well as not to interfere with its movement, not to try to overtake it or integrate into a military convoy in your car.

Drivers are also warned about the inadmissibility of obstructing the movement of equipment on country roads.

Also, residents of nearby settlements were warned about the inadmissibility of interfering with military exercises.

Attention is drawn to the fact that recently such warnings from the military department regarding residents of Latvia have begun to appear more and more often.

Why is "planes and helicopters" in the plural?

Because the NATO "air police" stationed in the Baltics has several ...

How they all love the police and policemen ... These are clearly echoes of their historical memory. Their lot is to police for their Gauleiter.

Latvian Defense Ministry warned drivers

There, few people read messages from the government.
Tired and not interested.

[Nexcom]

That's really really. I personally do not read the messages of the Latvian government and their Ministry of Defense - somehow purple and in parallel. I'm from the Urals.

But what about it: "... How they all love the police and policemen ..."
Where does knowledge come from?

seriously think that from the messages of the Latvian government ?? you are wrong

[quote = Nexcom] seriously think that from the messages of the Latvian government ?? you are wrong [/ quothere I understand (in time, taking into account the time) that this is the answer to my comment.
The meaning does not follow from the text, but intuitively guessing that you wanted to say that your conviction about the love of the inhabitants of Latvia for the "police and policemen" is not taken from the messages of the "Latvian government". Did I interpret your message correctly?
It seems that you are significantly mistaken in assessing the situation in the Baltics in general, and in Latvia in particular (I ask you not to forget, - an appeal to all participants in the VO, - how many citizens of the USSR remained there! Those who built, conquered, defended everything that is now sold out , given into the hands of their own, and foreign oligarchs!).
... About memory ... I already wrote under this article to another commentator, -type in the search engine "Riga, May 9th"! Victory Park (by the way, I took part in its construction / I hope I will be back /).
Take a look! And think about where the achievements of the Union are better remembered and appreciated? There, in Riga, where they carry flowers, breaking through the police crowds (by the way, it does not particularly interfere; - however, as it does not really protect the SS marches, - in different ways ...), or here (name the city of the Russian Federation), where they sell victorious symbols, they knit St. George ribbons on wheel rims of BMW, Volkswagens ...
"We can repeat!" - this is glued to the glass of their cars made in Germany, those who are tired of the overwhelming "work" to withdraw "earned" profits to offshore companies fly to rest in Turkey (the lowest level), there, our guys died in our time?....
And you about Latvia ... Come on, have you decided on your own?

[Nexcom]

Mine are in the USSR and Russia, and by no means hucksters and others. Honor the memory of those who fought in the Second World War, my family veterans have already died. And I mean as those Baltos who are just SSovtsev, policemen and other forest lads (who are not my brother) honors. There are enough of them

PS you will not believe but in Turkey not a foot after the downed plane and the killed ambassador.

PS2 it's good if I'm mistaken about the situation in the Baltic States, but their policy makes them perceive them that way

So I'm only FOR!
Only, please, be careful in your statements, -You indiscriminately all the Balts, residents (sometimes involuntarily) with your comments .... rejected. This is not fair.

[Nexcom]

I will try to take into account your comments and remarks in the future.

Someone in Latvija still reads in Latvian?

- warnings from the military department regarding residents of Latvia
They are afraid that someone will have a couple, three anti-tank mines, not prohibited by the convention, in the storerooms. This will be ADAGIO.

No differently began the redeployment of rubber boats, mattresses and assault inflatable rings together with their attendants.
The only two helicopters and three planes also decided to transfer to a heap. They decided to keep one of their own tanks for now. The most important thing is that they should not forget to relocate compressors for inflating rubber products, otherwise they will have to work with their mouths.

[Pete mitchell]

Previously, they beat local people in the face at McDonald's and then the special services covered up these cases; now traffic police officers will convince insurers that the car under the tank is an accident

[Nexcom]

Why did the Americans cleanse their vassals of Morden? Did you take the lackey position not fast enough?

[Pete mitchell]

There was a wave about this incident: there the Britons distinguished themselves, they were reprimanded at McDonald's and they did a great job for the guy, the special services then tried to hush up the case. And the young man, besides studying at the law faculty, also worked as a face: as a model on the catwalk ... I don’t know how it ended, I think they persuaded the young man.
Kadagu sorry, good memories ...

[Nexcom]

y-yes, the boy was not lucky.
then there the Britos were noted. and I thought the dashing cowboys from Texas.

but the meaning is clear - how did the vassals dare to make remarks to the owners. here is the boy.

[Pete mitchell]

In fact, the Lithuanians were noted there: at the beginning of this Air Policing mission, they selflessly blizzard "defenders", the Lithuanians had to charge the MP unit with the duty to look after them, and not just guard the parking lot

[Nexcom]

Lithuanians ???? because of the bastards. Are they the first to attack the peaceful Britos ?? and those, naturally, courageously defended themselves from the unbelted sprat, defended the honor of their uniforms. guess right?

[Pete mitchell]

Excuse me, I probably put it wrong: I wanted to say that in relations with the “defenders” the Shauliai were the first to set the tone. And yes, they beat the newcomers for showing disrespect. The McDonald's story happened later in Riga.

[Nexcom]

surrogate things are happening there.
did not expect such details.

[Pete mitchell]

Nothing supernatural. As old man Woland used to say: they are people ... And the locals, regardless of their nationality, are not all enthusiastic about the behavior of the “defenders”. Unfortunately, only the mayor of Ventspils, the former, it seems ...

When seeing military equipment on the road, it is important to observe traffic rules, as well as not to interfere with its movement, not to try to overtake it or integrate into a military convoy in your car.

Um, well, designate it as a column, otherwise it's an ordinary vehicle moving on public roads in general positions

Agree. And there it works (both with the designation of the column, and with the fulfillment by the drivers of the legal requirements prescribed by the traffic rules), and with additional notification of the population.
You can boast about how "Everything is wretched there" ... There, in Adazi, as a child, I picked lingonberries, mushrooms with my grandmother (until the tanks from the Riga Tank Repair Plant were rolling ...).
It's a shame, yes !!
But to shoot at the wheels of cars trying to wedge themselves into a convoy of military equipment (the "Topol" division), from the PM to stop the "Ural" with seven drunken domestic village "passengers", with sawn-off shotguns at the checkpoint of the rocket regiment ...

Sorry, he says: comrades, like Nexscom, drive all kinds of game in the style of V. Solovyov (without separating peoples from governments) ... Before pouring mud on someone, try to at least figure it out!
This is not the first time I recommend to those who "blows" to the Baltic states "from under the fan": type in the search engine "Riga, May 9".! You will not find such a sincere impulse / population in any city in Russia! Why? Decide for yourself ...

Iron cap 2021. Who needs Latvia, in line. There is Jurmala. And the aborigines can be asked, they will put pots on their heads and will ride. Free for American Coca - Cola.

[ugol2]

Strange announcement. What do they have there, the local NATO-vskim tanks do not give a pass? Are they offended?
