      It seems that I met the guard of honor, but neither Putin nor Medvedev deigned to climb off the ramp, and even made a round-trip of the carcass. This is Shinjou; all sad everything about the islands, he thinks, and the weather makes Russian melancholy and met dris left, unknown to the general public.

      The Japanese have territorial graters with us, China and Korea. It seems that they considered our country the weakest link. Naive.

        Most likely the main graters will be with China, whose military power is constantly growing.
        And regarding us, what can change? We - will not leave, they - will not climb, otherwise it will be bad for everyone.
        They need something from under us, and most likely, this is in relation to "third" parties ...

      Swedish fighters were unable to fend off the training "raid" of Russian aviation on Stockholm. Swedish fighters were not able to take off at all. Only NATO fighters based in Lithuania saved the Scandinavians from shame, reports Russia Today.

      Two Russian Tu-22M3 bomber missiles, accompanied by four Su-27 multipurpose fighters, conducted a training flight near the borders of the Swedish airspace. They flew over the uninhabited Swedish island of Gotska-Sandyon, and then simulated airstrikes in Stockholm and the southern regions of the country.

      Russian exercises became a shame for the Swedish Air Force and Air Defense. First, they noticed the threat too late. Secondly, they could not even react to it: the Swedish fighters could not fly into the air.

      The situation was partially saved by the NATO Air Force, or rather, those air connections that are based in Lithuania. They were raised by alarm and depicted the interception of Russian aircraft. Russian aircraft were intercepted only on the way back.

      This incident became known from the publication of the newspaper Svenska Dagbladet. The incident occurred on March 29, however, the Swedish military hid the information defaming them, said the BBC. After a newspaper publication, the Swedish armed forces acknowledged that Russian exercises were taking place at the border, but again remained silent - this time that the “Eastern Evil Empire” simulated an attack on Stockholm.

      The story of the "bombed Stockholm" occurred shortly after the scandalous statement by the Swedish supreme commander Sverker Joransson that his country would not last a week against Russia without NATO assistance.

      “We can defend against one potential adversary. We can defend against him without assistance just one week. We have never been armed so hard to independently confront the Soviet Union or Russia. In any case, we will need outside help - NATO or the United States. But our politicians do not allow the militarization of society, so that we can repel the threat from the east on our own, ”Joransson said.

      Harsh statements led to fierce debate in Swedish society. Critics of the ruling socialists drew attention to the fact that recently parliamentarians counted "every crown" that is allocated to finance the armed forces. Socialists in power responded to criticism by the prosecutor’s investigation into the statement of the commander in chief, saying that it was “disclosure of information of national importance.”

      Russian parodists, in response to Joransson’s statements, shot a video in which Swedish soldiers sing about the imminent “threat from the East” to the ABBA band's “Mamma Mia” motif. A chorus of cutesy journalists, soldiers-dancers in tight yellow shorts and blue T-shirts appear in the song, with words like “Our potential is fragile, and the Minister of Defense is in a skirt”.

      At the beginning of the video, the parody captain offers Sweden to urgently join NATO, then towards the end he changes his mind and says: “Since the Russians are so strong, we need to ask them to protect us from NATO.” “Freedom of speech is a good thing, especially in Russia,” said Swedish Minister of Defense Karin Enström ridiculed in the video.

      Writers are killing, not in the subject, but they are writing. Since when did the Su-27 become multipurpose, and "air connections" began to be based in Lithuania? When will journalists be introduced to a mandatory minimum knowledge course on the topic covered?

      Does this mean after it worked?
      I think on the way back the missile carriers generally have no one to intercept, for the complete absence of catching up.

    And because of what is noise? In any normal country (excluding Sweden) aviation must be in the air. The fact that the Japanese shook off (if so) is their problem. Get used to it, dear!

    And you can fly over the northern section of our southern territories.
    It is worth discussing this during negotiations on the conclusion of a peace treaty between the countries "partners"

    I listened to the press conference of the President of Russia V. Putin and the Prime Minister of Japan Shinzo Abe. A question from a correspondent of the Japanese side, read from a piece of paper about the "northern territories", thought it would blow up Putin. And he harshly and without equivocation - he answered, "Tell the one who wrote the text to you that you will receive a harsh answer to a harshly posed question. If you need it, accept it. then we must look for jointly acceptable solutions for both countries. If you do not agree - why did you come. And the islands ... - this problem is more than 100 years old, we inherited this problem. But we have the right to solve our issues of internal life on the islands as well as on the whole territory of Russia. Here V. Putin looked like a worthy leader of my country. If he still showed himself tough in cleansing from the "dirt" around him. There would be honor, praise and support of the people for him.
