Spain has started training Ukrainian troops on its territory

Spain has launched a training program for Ukrainian military personnel. Training is carried out on the territory of Spain in Zaragoza. This is stated in the message of the Spanish Ministry of Defense.

Spain will train twenty Ukrainian servicemen in the handling of Western weapons supplied to Ukraine, the Spanish military refuse to disclose more accurate information. It is also unknown how much time will be allotted for training, whether other groups will be recruited, or everything will be limited to these 20 military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who pulled out their lucky ticket to visit Spain in the midst of hostilities. A group of Ukrainian military has already arrived in Spain, training started today, that is, on September 19th.

Spanish troops are training Ukrainian soldiers from this Monday

- the message of the Ministry of Defense of Spain says.

Earlier in Madrid, they announced that they were preparing to launch their own training program for Ukrainian military personnel, similar to the British one. But if military instructors from several countries train more than 10 thousand soldiers for the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the territory of the United Kingdom, then Spain somehow does not look good with the training of 20 soldiers.

Earlier it was reported that the training program will include medical training, engineering, tactics, etc. It is planned that the process will use the transport and equipment of the Spanish army, but small arms and other weapon will correspond to what the APU applies, i.e. something from a family of clones of Kalashnikov assault rifles.

The Spanish Ministry of Defense stressed that they have rich experience in training foreign military personnel, Spanish instructors trained military personnel of the armies of Afghanistan, Iraq and Mali. They will also prepare for the Ukrainian army.

Why don't we train Basque and Catalan soldiers?

[Fisherman]

probably so as not to make serious experts laugh .... "Spanish military training" is something mythical like "British scientists" and to react to this is to sink to the level of joking with fools.

You have now called all Western diplomacy fools. This is such a modern world trend in politics: to carry nonsense.
Well, for example: the Russian Federation occupies all of Antarctica, because the penguins threaten to destroy the Russian people. You can come up with something more elaborate. Cans, Macaroni, Lizka from Trassa and other schulzes can carry nonsense, but Lavrov only concerns?

[Vasily Zotov]

Bearded man, listen to Putin's speech before the start of the special operation. There's nothing to add, nothing to take away

Spain to train XNUMX Ukrainian servicemen in handling Western weapons supplied to Ukraine, Spanish military refuse to disclose more accurate information

Well, what can I say .... It's a pity for those guys who laid down their lives for Spain in the 30s of the last century. They could be useful in the USSR.
But preparation 20!!! military personnel, so no one has yet whipped on the cheeks of Ukrainians

These are Nazi criminals Spaniards genocide peaceful Basques and Catalans.

because we don't have to pretend to be Basques and Catalans

Spain has started training Ukrainian troops on its territory

maybe Spain wants something else? On your territory.
And what was the minus? It seems to me that Spain, by its behavior, just wants the separation of the Basques and Catalonia and border disputes with Portugal. Well, she really wants to, otherwise she apparently has nothing to do at all.

[impostor]

Did you put a minus? This is probably one of the 20 lucky ones, he did not waste time, looked after himself a hut on the Basque land, and here you are with your separatist slogans? What if the Basques cannot stand the Nazis and will deprive them of their coveted real estate?

Yes, I did not utter slogans. It just seemed to me that Spain had nothing to do.

[impostor]

You see, what a thin matter, it only seemed to you, but someone immediately hiccupped ...

[impostor]

As practice shows, the Spaniards are unsurpassed masters in cooking meat ...

[Silver99]

Well, now calculate how much it will cost us to lose the pace of the offensive and switch to passive defense? Over the winter, NATO members will train and arm more than tens of thousands of fighters from Ukraine, and not poorly armed and motivated, do not believe the stories of TV storytellers that only drug addicts and students serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the tactics are simple to the primitive, first meat semi-finished products go to the breakthrough, then having exhausted the few defenses of the Russian army, guided by American intelligence, combat-ready units go, after a breakthrough, they roll back to the rear and Ukrainian meat is again exposed to attack, and these are being prepared for the next sector of the front. Only by intercepting the initiative can you impose your tactics on them, but here, as I understand it, the forces of the ground units are now sorely lacking.

[Quote Lavrov]

It seems that if the issue had been in force, then it would have been resolved in some other way than by Prigozhin's trips to the zones and proposals in the State Duma on the introduction of academic leave for students participating in the SVO. I am sure that the state has enough other legal mechanisms for building up and using military force. And since they have not been used for 7 months, then we should not talk about their lack.

[voyaka uh]

"tactics are simple to the primitive" ///
----
This is not true. Their tactics are very advanced.
And there are no "meat semi-finished products" now.
Poorly trained infantry - terrorist defense - the Armed Forces of Ukraine had in the first months.
Now the trained mechanized units are moving forward. They pass through the defenses of the Russian army at the junctions between units without suffering heavy losses.

Jewish Mriya... how cute

[Charik]

where did the Spaniards advance in tactics?

[voyaka uh]

Spaniards - nowhere.
I didn't write about them.
And about studying in England.
English instructors are the best in infantry training.
Better than American.
And there will be no full-length attacks.

[Rustic]

Something not enough Ukraine sent whores to Spain. This is not like Spain, Zaragoza, and then nothing. Or is it just a free sample so far, and then they will see how they will serve?

[certero]

I wonder if during training this base is hit, how will it be?

[Silver99]

As the beginning of the third world. Let's look at things sensibly, they can train and arm anyone on their territory, but why don't we create training centers on our territory and don't finance the Basques? In the days of the USSR, all liberation movements were actively supported, in each country there were armed workers' parties supported by us, in the same Ulster it was fun and Britain was not quite up to us, in the USA there were blacks, sorry African Americans were buzzing, in France hippies ...... .

[besikexe]

In the Russian Federation, first all the Cossacks sent to the 90s should be thrown out. Are you talking about training camps?

Another question about the same as yours.
But they, trained, from Europe through the territory of Ukraine do not seep into the war zone one or two at a time. And the places of their arrival in Ukraine, and the places of formation of formations in Western Ukraine, and the routes of movement to the East, I think, are not a secret for our intelligence. So why there, hundreds of kilometers from the Donbass, in Lvov or Vinnitsa, not smash them to pieces? So that in the West, sooner or later they will understand - cook - don't cook, but it's all the same in vain.

Sometimes messages about strikes slip through, but somehow hesitantly and so, to scare. "Barracks destroyed", "up to ten mercenaries destroyed". And where were "bridges destroyed", "airfields destroyed", "technical concentration points destroyed"?
In Zaporozhye, the Dnieper Hydroelectric Power Station was blown up in 41 so that the Germans would not get it, and here we are shaking for every bridge across the river - "we have to restore it later ..."

[ALARI]

And in any way, first you need to bombard Lvov, then Warsaw, and only then Madrid. The queue is already long.

[Corrosion inhibitor]

I have heard about Italian prostitutes before. It turns out that the Spanish "masculinity" in fact, too, is not worth much.
Whoever easily forgets that strength is in truth - then it’s hard for him to remember.

[Nexcom]

Yes, the castanetos also changed their shoes. And they began to serve the hegemon. Alas, alas.

PS although 20 fighters is a platoon of strength. maybe just castanetos cover their asses - like, well, we are training. yes, not much, but how much we can

[Corrosion inhibitor]

There is no truth in this. One thing sanctions - this money. And here, a completely different alignment came out. This is not forgiven and will not be forgiven, I think.

Spain has started training Ukrainian troops on its territory

. The professor, who looks at the world, expressed the following thesis - the loss of personnel, command staff, the Armed Forces of Ukraine is great and it will not be possible to quickly replenish them.
In principle, putting a sergeant in command of something more than a platoon is not ice. It is possible to refer to the fact that the evil army is "mso", and the white sahib will be in command!? but we still have to get to that ... although such a possibility is not excluded.
In general, we will see how events develop further.
By the way, he has long been expressing the thesis that our Armed Forces need, not reorganization, as such, we need to change the status of the military so that we don’t have 500 and those who give up everything to save their worthless lives !!!

[cniza]

Good time!

Somehow they collect a zoo, maybe they just don’t give out true information, what kind of unit of 20 fighters is this?

[rocket757]

Hi
Who needs to be trained a lot and even more, this is the command staff and instructors / sergeants for training the rank and file.
Those. national military cadres, professionals ... or finally go under the command of the "white sahib".
The impudent, and some others, have such experience, although it has long been impossible to call it successful.

[cniza]

It seems to me that without a single cent, this is, to put it mildly ...

[rocket757]

So all gay European masters or partners have. His word is law, no matter how puffed up they are in the gayrlp.
So they go there, to the slaughter, for the sake of ideas and the prosperity of the hechemon.
Their affairs, themselves, got into it themselves.

[cniza]

It is also unknown how much time will be allotted for training, whether other groups will be recruited, or everything will be limited to these 20

Good trolling...

[rocket757]

The further into the forest ... no, differently - the closer winter, the more active the mental processes of many, many and in the wrong direction, which they were given from above, already in the wrong direction.

[cniza]

The fatter the partisans, but on the other hand, is it just collectivism?

[rocket757]

So there are already no differences to be found, where is collectivism, and where is just .... a herd.
The main thing is that there is a shepherd there and he drives the herd to where he needs to go.

[valentine light]

What wars did Spain win, can anyone remind?

Quote: "... Spanish instructors trained the military personnel of the armies of Afghanistan, Iraq and Mali ..."

All those who lost in all respects in their conflicts ... in Afghanistan and gave all the equipment to their enemy without a fight .. :))
Yes, and 20 people, even trained ones, will not decide anything when the batch has already begun, where the United States is a participant in the conflict, along with its own nata, that’s all.

[Turtle]

I’ll show the article to my wife - she always dreamed of flying there on vacation during the pandemic, and even then I told her that I wouldn’t go to the Nazis. Let him read and shut up with this idiotic idea.

[tatarin1972]

The main thing is not the quantity, the main thing is participation. Where will they be trained? Based on the Spanish Foreign Legion?

[tihonmarine]

Spanish instructors trained military personnel of the armies of Afghanistan, Iraq and Mali. Prepared for the army of Ukraine

"Good" was prepared by the Spaniards, there's nothing to even say - "No pasarán!"

[mojohed2012]

Well what? What will an officer or corporal of the Spanish army teach the Ukrainian conscripts who has not been fired upon and has not smelled real gunpowder, the smell of dross from shell fragments, guts from inside a neighbor, blood and vomit?

[Million]

They will teach you how to drink wine and drink oranges..

[Luminman]

What is there in Spain? Catalonia? Basque country?

[Raven 95]

Spain will train twenty Ukrainian servicemen

As many as twenty?! Well, it's time to give up.

[uav80]

The Spaniards can only teach how to march beautifully in unbuttoned shirts ...

PS: how the company of the guard of honor at the funeral of heroes will go ...

[Archimedos]

Any training, even among the Spaniards who have not really fought anywhere for 300 years, can benefit the students. I don’t understand why reservists and youth are not trained in the LPR and DPR, instead they are gathered en masse along the streets and enterprises, and sent to the front line like cannon fodder? Even 2-3 weeks in training will give an understanding of when you don’t need to stick your head out of the trench, listen to the commander’s orders and how to use shelters.
