Jacob Kedmi: Now Russia will easily cover the entire southern flank of NATO

8
2,5 years have passed since the start of the anti-terrorist operation in Syria. To say that it is successful is to say nothing. ISIS is defeated, the territory returned to the control of Damascus is expanding every day. Key cities taken - Aleppo, Deir ez-Zor, Abu Kemal. Recaptured by Palmyra.

The military presence of the Russian army in the Arab Republic is growing. Recently, from 2 to 4 fifth-generation Su-57 fighters landed in Khmeimim. Together with them, four Su-25 attack aircraft and four Su-35S fighters flew into Syria.

Israeli militarypolitical expert Jacob Kedmi is confident that even after the operation against the militants, the Russian air forces will remain in Syria. Khmeimim air base will be turned into a place of permanent deployment of fighter and bomber aircraft. Kedmi is confident that sooner or later, the Russian military will transfer long-range aviation, in particular Tu-22M3, to Latakia, which, thanks to their range and long-range cruise missiles, will keep the entire southern flank of NATO at gunpoint, right up to Gibraltar.

      Well then, we entered Syria to protect it from the Merikans and the terrorists they created in the entire Middle East, as well as to leave our military base against NATO and exceptional barbarians with their numerous military bases

          We do not need this. Spraying the budget of the Moscow region for the maintenance of bases is not rational. They need to be created only when it is critically important for our safety and the security of our allies, and only where it is really necessary.

        Figured it out myself?

        President of the Syrian Arab Republic (SAR) Bashar al-Assad sent a written request to the Russian leadership with a request to provide Syria with military assistance in the fight against the “Islamic State” (a terrorist group banned in the Russian Federation by a court decision).

      Cedmi is worth a listen. His predictions most often come true.
      Great analyst. In fact, there are very few such people in the world.

        He always says that they want to hear from him .... A Jewish Muscovite who fled to Israel from the USSR and headed there the "special service" NATIV, which is engaged in helping the departure of Soviet Jews from the "Evil Empire", and who recently received permission from the GDP to visit the Russian Federation, here now this oracle is working out his betrayal, in Israel he is no one and he can not be called, he often appears on the Russian-language ITON TV in Israel ...

        Khmeimim air base will be turned into a place of permanent deployment of fighter and bomber aircraft.

        Rather, fighter and base anti-submarine. There is nothing to do bomber aircraft there ...

        the military will deploy long-range aviation, in particular Tu-22M3, to Latakia, which, thanks to their range and long-range cruise missiles, will keep the entire southern flank of NATO, up to Gibraltar, at gunpoint.

        This can be done from the Black Sea from the same aircraft, but taking off from the Crimea under cover of air defense of the Russian Federation ...
        It’s not necessary to consider our General Staff as fools, for some reason the British should not keep tactical destroyers in Cyprus, Falkland, Gibraltar, but we need to keep whole bombers there ...
