Lithuania will train Ukrainian military personnel in the use of Western weapons

23

Lithuania has decided to provide assistance to Ukraine by training the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the use of NATO-standard weapons. As the Minister of Defense of the Republic Arvydas Anusauskas stated, the military department of Lithuania organizes special courses for Ukraine.

The Lithuanian military will conduct courses for servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in five different specialties, which are not exactly disclosed. The training will take place on the territory of Lithuania, it will take six months and should begin this month. In total, during this period, the Lithuanians pledged to train 150 Ukrainian soldiers. Moreover, it is emphasized that the program of the Lithuanian Ministry of Defense involves the training of already trained military personnel, and not recruits.



Already in August, we are starting five courses for Ukrainians... Without training, efficiency weapons below, so we would like to provide support specifically by training specialists. Not from scratch at all, but specifically specialists with specialization in specific weapons used by Ukrainians and the Lithuanian army

- the minister said.

However, Lithuania decided not to limit itself to this program alone, Lithuanian military instructors went to the UK to train Ukrainian military personnel to fight there as part of the British “breakthrough” training program for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. As explained in Vilnius, the British do not have enough military instructors to train Ukrainian recruits, so Lithuania decided to help the UK.

Lithuania also helps the UK, sends its instructors there to train the military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, because more (instructors) are needed to train from scratch

Anusauskas added.

    Well, these will teach you how to fight. The Americans couldn't, the Canadians couldn't. the Poles couldn’t seem to do it, and the small-shaven ones can’t cope, but the Lithuanians will teach.

    Let's imagine Israel's reaction if a base were built in Syria, on which Russian instructors began to train Hezbollah fighters to use our weapons ..

      Introduced. I think very soon it would become clear to everyone that Israel is not non-nuclear "power".
      If only Russia would react in the same way. I really hope that the demonstration of "helplessness and irresponsibility" is not a sabotage of statehood and sovereignty.

    Has Lithuania ever (apart from the last Livonian war) been seen in military achievements? Ukrainians themselves can teach them everything.

    Well, now the Lithuanian super warriors will teach the crested how to use the "toothbrush" ... and the turn will come to Mozambique, they will teach the heroes how to wipe themselves .... And 150 warriors of light at 5 VUS for six months is power, t .e. 30 for each VUS ...., only for a tank you need at least a specialist of 3 VUS ...., it’s better not to mention air defense or Art at all ..... Campaign there, the training manual of the USSR Ministry of Defense is still in use, so much was prepared in training ...., nothing changes.

    Lithuania - because the "instructors" still remember the Russian language.
    But on the F-16, most likely, Afghan and Israeli "volunteers" will fly. And a convenient moment for this will be somewhere in September, when the weather is fine (and to turn the board over before the elections). The planes will be old Israeli or Afghan, which are "stored" in Central Asia. They can take off from Romania and from Poland.
    By the way, Zhdun, why haven't they been destroyed yet? Right now, CSTO members (and non-members) under the leadership of the United States have started some suspicious exercises. It's like preparing for combat. Against who? Who is the US "mental enemy". Correctly.

    The continuity has been maintained. Representatives of the most lame EU member will train representatives of the territory of Eastern Europe, which has become no less lame. Well, the value system is about the same order.

      Russian ship with mines from the Second World War sank 20 nautical miles from the port of Klaipeda

      The mines were washed away due to strong winds and waves. The shipping organization evaluates the potential risk resulting from the incident.

    I remember how high-flown the Lithuanians talked about helping the people of Afghanistan, their personal responsibility for bringing "democracy" there, for the personal duty and duty of the EU to counter the threat of radical Islamism, terrorism, etc....
    Somehow I did not pay attention: Lithuania protested against the withdrawal of American troops and decided to keep its mission to continue helping the freedom-loving people of Afghanistan?

    Nothing strange. The Nazi regime in Lithuania will train the soldiers of the Nazi regime in Ukraine in the use of weapons with which the panochek shared.

    The tribals are true warriors - 3 cripples hid behind the backs of the Americans in Iraq and Afghanistan. Let their grandfathers be sent, they will teach dill how to dig dugouts in the deep forest and then hide in them.
