Germany exports its air defense system from the Turkish territory

62
Turkish News Agency Anadolu writes that Germany has taken anti-aircraft missile systems belonging to it from Turkey. The ship, on which the Patriot air defense system was loaded, departed from the Turkish port of Iskenderun and headed for the shores of the European Union to transport complexes to Germany.

Germany exports its air defense system from the Turkish territory


The German Patriot air defense system (two batteries), as well as 250 military personnel of the army of the Federal Republic of Germany, were on Turkish territory under a special mandate. The German military group operated in the province of Karamanmarash, located in southeastern Turkey a few dozen kilometers from the border with Syria.

Official Berlin announced that the mandate for a mission in Turkey ends in January 2016. Apparently, it was decided to proceed in advance with the coagulation of the ZRK batteries.

It should be recalled that not only German anti-aircraft batteries are located in Turkey. It is also the batteries of the Netherlands (later the Dutch air defense systems were replaced by Spanish) and the United States (two from each state). These air defense systems were deployed under the program of NATO assistance to Turkey in connection with the "danger posed by Syria." NATO decided that Turkey needed such assistance in January 2013.

Apparently, today in Berlin, vague doubts about who is threatening the real one have been stung up by everyone: is Syria Turkey or vice versa? ..

    It seems that NATO members are downright insistently inviting Russia to strike at Turkey, leaving the Turks without modern air defense. Recently, the Americans withdrew their fighters, now the Germans and the Dutch have taken the Patriots ..

        See the root: Indeed, it seems that they are inviting. First, they praise our army, then they’ve screwed up with the aircraft themselves (the Bundesfer), now they are launching the air defense systems. This is against the background of the downed SU-24. Somehow they insistently (and suspiciously) hint that we should seriously bite with the Turks. What is it for?

Well, the termination of the contract for the construction of nuclear power plants, the economic feasibility of which is equal to zero. Payback too long (50 years).

    Nothing torments anyone. Some removed the others (the article states that the Netherlands batteries were also replaced). Turkey is for the West, now it’s such a splinter in Russia. It’s not scary, but unpleasant. And the west will use it to the maximum. Another played card of foreign policy, which the world gathers on more than one deck.

And it is possible for the Turks to end in serious trouble. It must be recalled that in Turkey there are not only German anti-aircraft batteries. These are also the batteries of the Netherlands (subsequently the Dutch air defense systems were replaced by Spanish) and the United States (two from each state) Well, it's just a bargaining chip in geopolitics and a little reassurance for a fart. The main thing is that there would not be a state of emergency in our territory. By the way, I’ve just read about the penetration of sabotage from 404 into Russia. So my opinion is that they will try to coordinate the crimes again, as last time, they will only act more sharply.

    Do not you think, dear ones, that both the states and the Germans quietly removed their systems only because there is no use for them, our electronic warfare simply cut off their oxygen. The Americans also removed their planes from their base in Turkey. Something interesting is outlined in Syria in the context of the speech of VVP at the collegium of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, where it was said "we have a lot of other systems" and you might think you need to apply them in Syria, not literally of course, but the meaning is clear.

They will say that it was Russians who shot down their own with 400. After all, there is no one else. They will bring down somewhere where it is impossible. Not over Syria
