Shoigu called for looking for new areas of interaction between the armed forces of the CIS countries

Countries that are members of the Commonwealth of Independent States need to have powerful armies capable of quickly responding to any emerging threats. They must be well trained and equipped, as the military-political situation on the planet requires this.

This opinion was expressed by the head of the Russian Ministry of Defense, Sergei Shoigu, during a meeting of the CIS Council of Defense Ministers.

Today we will start joint preparations for the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the Victory of our peoples in the Great Patriotic War, the lessons of which still remain relevant

- said the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation.

He considers one of the main lessons to be the awareness of the need to have armed forces that are able to adequately respond to emerging threats and challenges. And the current situation in the world obliges us to do this. The minister addressed the meeting participants with a proposal to discuss the global agenda and joint activities of the allied states through the ministries of defense.

Shoigu also called on those gathered to strengthen mutual ties and look for new areas of interaction and cooperation between the armed forces of the CIS countries.

Earlier this spring, at one of the meetings of the Russian Security Council, state leader Vladimir Putin brought up for discussion the issue of cooperation between our country and other CIS countries. Soon he ratified the Russian-Kyrgyz agreement on the creation of a common air defense system. And in September, Deputy Commander-in-Chief of the Aerospace Forces Yuri Grekov announced plans to deploy missile defense systems in the CIS countries.

Well, this one will definitely find it, create the paths and obstacles himself, and heroically clear it away...Talent, a genius of military thought, a great strategist and tactician.

[Egeny]

we will start joint preparations for the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the Victory

... this is definitely more important...

[Garris199]

And there are no more ideas. What he can do is what he does.

Wow. The armies of the CIS will celebrate the 80th anniversary of victory together and become the most powerful. What else do you need?

[Doctor]

Does the CIS still exist? And how will the armed forces of Azerbaijan and Armenia interact there?

They will hit each other with sticks.

Azerbaijan has nothing against Armenia, it only fought a little with the separatists on its territory, among whom were several vacationers from the Armenian Armed Forces. Happens.
But the fact that formally Ukraine is still in the CIS makes the interaction of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation within the framework of the same CIS somewhat strange. In principle, of course there is interaction, but there is one nuance.

[Thrifty]

The country's Defense Ministry and Shoigu live in their own perpendicular world! With shelling of our lands, with the lack of our own secure means of communication, how are things? Perhaps we need to change priorities and first give the army what it needs for normal functioning?

Let's talk about the future...
What happened in the past, how it happened that a contract army is not a panacea, where the allocated money went, why the campaign plans could not be implemented - this is no longer important.
Let's look forward.

[dmi.pris1]

How important is this at the current moment? We can talk about the Armed Forces of Russia and Belarus, but not the CIS (by the way, what is this at the present time, and in connection with connections to sanctions)?

he lives in a parallel reality: if the Kazakhs take into account the sanctions and will continue to follow them in relation to us, then what kind of interaction are we talking about?
M.B. Has the sign been given about the development of the budget?

[alystan]

Eh, Kuzhugetovich would have been puzzled by this before. And not by building temples.
How much time was lost. And not only time.
We will have to make up for lost time; unfortunately, much has already been lost irrevocably.
But, as they say, “Thunder will not strike, the man will not cross himself!” or "Better late than never!"

[Amateur]

Shoigu also called on those gathered to strengthen mutual ties and search new areas of interaction and cooperation between the armed forces of the CIS countries.

For some reason I remembered an old joke:

Yishshy, yushshy. it should be...

It would be better for Shoigu to think about what example the Russian Armed Forces, stuck in the positional deadlock of the Northern Military District, are setting for the armies of the CIS countries.
After all, they look up to the strongest and best. Therefore, such meetings should be held only after he holds the Victory Parade on Khreshchatyk.

The blogger’s father-in-law is planning to “start joint preparations for the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the Victory of our peoples in the Great Patriotic War...” - isn’t it too early and he has nothing else to do? Looks like he's about to give his daughter a makeover...
ps I have nothing against the 80th anniversary, but in my opinion it’s too early.

[flSergius]

It would be better to focus on the lessons of the last decade:
1) the small people from the CIS are ungrateful parasites, ready to cling to the back of the one who dragged them from savagery to the light for a couple of hundred years.
2) parades, reviews and combed reports are useless in a real war.

[HAM]

Has it finally come to light after the Karabakh events that everyone in the CIS thinks that only Russia is obliged to protect everyone? By yourself, now by yourself?? Armenian wishlists at least taught us something.....it’s doubtful somehow...

[Rumata]

The main thing is to start, and then expand and deepen

[Reptiloid]

members of the CIS....

Armenia signed the Statute of Rome
Azerbaijan?
Kazakhstan was hosting Scholz right now and Tokayev swore his love for them all and eternal sanctions against the Russian Federation. They just didn’t hug and kiss like Zelya and Duda

I gave you a minus for the “small people”.
I agree with point 2.
Yes, I agree with the meaning. But I don’t agree to call everyone indiscriminately parasites. There are no worthless nations, there are worthless people. And every nation has these.

Come to Kotelniki and tell this to the indigenous people, who are forced to create folk squads to protect themselves from savages. There are no worthless nations, there are worthless people, but for some reason in some nations they are the majority Internationalism and friendship of peoples are speculative constructs invented by European intellectuals in contrast to WWII and Hitlerism, and practice, incl. The work of law enforcement says that not all people are equal.

And when will this nonsense end? What kind of "commonwealth"? What kind of “collective security”? Every man for himself and there is no need to look for any directions. God save the Russian Federation from “friends” from the former USSR. At any moment they will return it like glass containers

[Div Divich]

The CIS has collapsed, but it can be revived if Russia's neighboring countries benefit from interaction with Russia.
Americans offer more benefits, so countries come over to their side.
There are other benefits besides money; we must look for ways to win countries over to our side.
For example, organizing tourism, there is a lot to see in Russia, you just need to organize a comfortable stay for tourists.

Right. There are many guests in Moscow from Central Asian countries, some of them on tourist visas. Admiring the spiers of Ostankino.

What other benefits are there for these Papuans? Glass beads?

[Kuzmitsky]

Well said! True, familiar notes are felt, such arrogant ones. I already heard from someone. From Svidomo, it seems. Those residents of Donbass were considered Papuans - savages and “vatniks”, unworthy of the highly cultured “great Galicians”. They also came up with a nasty name - "Downbass"

And now something similar is slowly brewing in Russia. A “superior race” is also beginning to take shape. The main thing is that denazification within the country is not necessary.

[Yaroslav Tekkel]

It’s strange that the stillborn monster of the CSTO has not yet been remembered. Whose history is a continuous shame. Initially, it was created as a mini-NATO in the vastness of the former Union, but troubles immediately began. First, CSTO member Armenia (with poorly hidden support from CSTO member Russia) fought a victorious war and grabbed part of the territory from CSTO member Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan was offended and left the CSTO, starting to focus on Turkey. Uzbekistan, looking at this pornography, asked whether the CSTO protects from anything. After which he also left. The remaining Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan are bitter enemies and periodically organize small wars. Kazakhstan received security guarantees from China and since then has been demonstrating its attitude towards Russia in every possible way. Armenia, having been attacked by Azerbaijan on its internationally recognized territory (not Artsakh or a “security zone”), for the first time legally turned to the CSTO for protection from an attack by a third country and received in response wishes to stay there and all the best. Well, only Belarus is left.
