In the USA, they were afraid that Russia would take the Suvalk corridor

1
Regular discussions of various war scenarios with Russia have long been the norm in the American media. The publication We Are The Mighty is no exception, which believes that in the event of a war between Russia and NATO, the Suvalki corridor will be of particular importance. He, according to the publication, is "especially vulnerable and important point."



It should be recalled that the Suvalki corridor means part of the territories of Poland and Lithuania (about 100 km long) that separate the Kaliningrad region of Russia and Belarus. It is this section of land that the American publication considers the most vulnerable. Since its loss will actually cut off the Baltic states (Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia) from the remaining continental Europe that is part of NATO. At the same time, emphasis is placed on the fact that, in which case, Russia will be able to cover the captured area with Iskander missile systems.

Kaliningrad is a Russian enclave bordering the Baltic Sea, and Belarus is Russia's historic ally. Russia can easily concentrate troops on both sides in order to make a crazy breakthrough across the line, and it can do this quickly without giving a special warning

- writes We Are The Mighty.

Why is this needed for Russia? The publication does not specify, which, however, is traditional for many Western media outlets that regularly cover such topics and expose Moscow as the enemy of all "progressive" humanity. Moreover, they recall the Suvalki corridor with enviable regularity, although no one has hit a finger on the border for all this time. There it was already possible to build 3-4 lines of Maginot or Mannerheim lines if desired, since they are so worried.

    What for? And then, they know very well that Russia will go for it ONLY in the event of an attack on it. Until then, we don’t need it for nothing. We are already satisfied with everything. And all these screams are needed only for one thing - the West needs Russia ONLY as an enemy. Because the crisis of capitalism, as an economic model, has not gone anywhere, just about its course in this very West they prefer to hide information and replace it with a "threat from Russia." It's just that when everything and everyone collapses, they will blame Russia for everything and - voila - what is not a reason for war ?! By that time, the populations of all these countries will be prepared for the INVASION. And they will justify ANY act of aggression, if only (once again) to postpone the collapse of capitalism (as a system of slavery in the world) for another term ... Or perish (then they will not care) as Hitler's Germany. Everything goes to this ...
