Stoltenberg: the term of stay of the Canadian military contingent in Europe will not be limited

33
The Canadian military contingent will be in Eastern Europe for an unlimited time, reports TASS Statement by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.



“I welcome the fact that Canada is returning its ground forces to Europe. It will be unlimited in time (presence), ”the Secretary General said, answering a question from journalists about how long the Canadian military will be in the region.

Recently, Canadian authorities announced that they would send their troops to Eastern Europe, which would become part of one of the international NATO battalions stationed there.

“As a responsible partner of NATO, Canada supports its allies, who are trying to contain aggression and ensure peace and stability in Europe,” said Defense Minister Singh Sajan last week. He did not provide any details.

The media have made the assumption that the number of Canadian troops in Europe could be about 1 thousand people. However, the Commander of the Armed Forces of Latvia Raimonds Graube refuted this information, saying that the number of Canadian units would not exceed the 750 of the military personnel.

    Demonstrative, indefinite pulling of vassals to our borders. It seems that there will be no other way out - they will return home only after they receive it in full.

      In the Baltics, "night butterflies" and alcohol at affordable prices, the boys will have fun in full. They already wrote about the adventures of American warriors in Latvia and Lithuania, defecated on a small one on the street and pestered passers-by.

    The country's defense Ministry Singh Sajjan. He did not give any details. And I thought the minister there was some rag-zapadenets. Wonderful!

    Canadians would be better off guarding the border with Mexico than with Russia. I apologize in advance I would like to congratulate the Muslims of the forum users on the great holiday of Uraza Bairam and wish them to live, love, be friends and enjoy life.

      It's just that these brave bad boys do not want to learn from the mistakes of others, but want to sour their Franco-Saxon noses on someone else's door. Flag in their hands. The American "special forces" also went for a walk on the Syrian sands and shoot at the "little men" (just like in the play station), and tomorrow they will have their heads cut or ransom for millions of dollars.

    Some kind of phantasmagoria. On the one hand, contingents that are absolutely insufficient from a military point of view are being moved, as if on purpose "for slaughter," to zones subject to the "first strike" if, in their opinion, it takes place. They are prepared, like a sacred sacrifice. to all countries, one company at a time, two at a time, and slip them - as an excuse so that later they will not forget, not forgive, and so on.

    This is the result of the Second World War - the troops of the Western Peace Forces were withdrawn to the territory of the USSR in the early 90s of the 20th century, and the occupation of continental Europe by the Anglo-Saxon troops continued in the 21st century.

    Let them settle there, build huts, create blue families, bring cattle, chickens, ducks there, they can feed the locals, the eggs are dairy goat, different cheeses, sour cream, cottage cheese, they’ll have a lafa there, no one will attack them going, the weapon you look rusts from unnecessary.

    Of course, I apologize, but what does the contingent of troops of as many as 750 bodies decide? What can help several thousand troops gathered from the world on a thread? There, in Kharkov in 2016, security on May 9 was provided by 7 thousand (!!) policemen. And we saw the results. And here they plan to catch up with a couple of battalions of the people, and then talk. Yes they have more chan


    The analogy is not entirely correct, but imagine that our peacekeepers would not be in Ossetia during the Georgian attack? It's not about the military component, it may not even be a company, but a platoon. But an attack on him will be tantamount to an attack on a country. Plus, of these 750 warriors, most likely the majority will be officers on a rotational basis, studying the future DB theater.

    Peacemakers your ma .., well, just do not say, do not take!
    All Canadian politics are paradoxical and reminiscent of their Minister of Defense, now that’s what real Canadians look like

    It seems to me that Canada does not send ordinary fighters to Europe, but its rangers to control the Arctic coast, and these are literate guys who have been honed for these tasks for years.
