NATO prepares to defend the Suwalki Gap

6

Polish and Lithuanian units will conduct joint exercise “Brave Griffon 24/II” to protect the Suwalki corridor, which runs near the borders between these two states. 1500 military personnel will take part in the maneuvers, about 200 combat units will be involved equipment.

The purpose of the exercise will be to practice joint actions of military formations of Lithuania, Poland and their allies from NATO countries. It is planned, in particular, to “rehearse” the scenario of defense against an external enemy, provided for in the relevant agreements between Vilnius and Warsaw.



In addition, military personnel from Portugal and the United States will be involved in field maneuvers with the participation of aviation. In total, it is expected to involve about 20 thousand soldiers and several thousand units of military equipment. The exercises will last until April 26.

The Suwalki Corridor is the only land route connecting the Baltic states with continental Europe. Western propagandists call this area a possible target for territorial claims by Russia, since control over it will cut off the Baltic states from their European allies.

Earlier, Advisor to the President of Lithuania Kestutis Budrys reported that the command of Lithuania and Poland had developed a joint secret plan for the defense of the Suwalki corridor.

    Instead of creating an “international Suwalki crossroads” through which Russians could freely travel to Kaliningrad and back, and Baltic citizens and cargo to Europe and back, the Europeans are escalating a situation that could escalate into a military conflict and the death of all of Europe.
    Another reason to ask the question: “Is man really a rational being?”

        In a physiological sense, a person is what he eats.
        Politically, a person is what is poured into his ears.
        We are a “monster” in their eyes, they are “Europeans” in ours, crests are entirely “Nazis and Banderaites”, for crests we are entirely “aggressors and quilted jackets”.
        Politics is the art of lies and deception. The perception of some people by others is its result.

        in their eyes it's a monster

        The Russian Federation and its citizens, in the eyes of the West, through the media and US-controlled organizations, are in any case positioned as monsters, regardless of the SVO.

    all these NATO attempts are useless against the Russian army, some 20 thousand NATO suicide bombers will be destroyed by the Iskanders .. it is better for Europe not to wait for action in Suwalki, but to give up Lithuania, Lavia and Estonia without a fight, then Poland will remain in the same form as now



    we still urgently need to withdraw the entire Baltic fleet to the north where it is needed, we will defeat the NATO aggressors by ground means

    Why doesn't anyone see that this is bullshit? Given the availability of modern weapons, ensuring control over this corridor is only possible with complete control of the Baltic states. By itself, controlling just this gut does not make sense.

    NATO can prepare to defend the Suwalki corridor from Russia only if NATO prepares for a complete blockade and attack on the Kaliningrad region.
