    It's strange ... - Basically, "all this" against China is being carried out and ... and ... and .. China itself "with everything" is present and participates ... - For Russia, all this will go down the drain, and money down the drain .. - And for China it means obtaining new valuable operational data with an excellent real "tie" to a certain Russian locality, and Russia itself pays for everything ... - what could China still wish for better ... - such a freebie ...
    - It's as if in April-May 1941, joint "Soviet-German" military exercises were held on the territory of the RSFSR, and the USSR would supply everyone with food and fuel free of charge and provide auxiliary transport and human resources and ... and ... and ... would reveal "all the cards" about his area, roads, rivers, bodies of water, etc ...
    - In general, not only China, but also Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan (I’ll just keep silent about Pakistan and India) ... - they haven’t been so friendly for a long time that they speak against a common enemy with Russia in a single military alliance ...
    - It is unlikely that the "bakhtiars" will generally harness themselves for Russia ... - it is Russia that will always defend the "bakhtiars" ... - But what can you expect from them ??? - They can easily go over to the side of China ... - "If something happens" ... - And if we take into account the fact that under what Chinese "financial, political and economic influence" Kazakhstan and other "Bakhtiarov's limitrophes" are today , then this becomes a completely possible reality ... - And this will become a "tragic surprise" for Russia ... - Who else can Russia hope for militarily ... - it's fraternal Belarus ... - And Recently, Belarus has not been very "supporting" Russia ... - And at these "maneuvers" it is something "not declared" ... - probably, "Lukashenko's father" again got another "harness" ... - So what about the other "allies" to talk about.
    - So ... - it's one thing to hold tank "biathlon show"; and the other ... is to conduct real combat exercises ... - two big differences ...
    - The question is ... - "whom" and "against whom" to train and teach for their own money ...

      It’s as if something can be hidden from China.)
      And our satellite relief is probably visible).
      The territory of the Russian Federation is located in Eurasia, where many "bakhtiars" live.)
      Our country and almost all of the countries declared in the exercises are members of the CSTO.

        Yes, that's it ...
        - But here the Chinese are already seeing with their own eyes all the weakness of our army, the low qualifications of our military specialists, the weak training of the Russian rank and file ... - And most importantly ... the obvious discrepancy between the Russian and all "Bakhtiyar troops"; unwillingness and reluctance to obey the Russian command (swan, crayfish and pike), despite the fact that the Russian budget contains all this amusing mixed-tribe "Bakhtiyar army" ... - And they already get to know directly the "Bakhtiyar" overdressed East Asian military leaders, from which the primitive Chvan smell of malice, hypocrisy, duplicity, duplicity and deceit of the times of the Asian Golden Horde "heritage", when the readiness to quickly "change the owner" and run over to serve to a more influential and "generous" khan was commonplace, has not yet disappeared ...
        - All this is the Chinese and take note of ...
        - They are similar to the Japanese, who, during the time of the tsarist Russian period, just snooped, scouted and prepared everything in advance ... - And then there was a war between Russia and Japan in 1904-1905, and Tsushima was ... - The results are known to everyone .. .
        - But even that ... then there was a single Russian Empire ... - And what does Russia have today ???
        - Some unreliable "Bakhtiyarov's CSTO", which is forced to maintain itself and alone ... - How long will all this ...

          Hard to say. Different countries, their own mentality, but there are common goals, a desire to live in a calm world and develop in a familiar environment.
