Eastern Response of Belarus' Security Council to NATO's Eastern Activity
Article:
Let's lay it all out - our predictions on the moves by NATO and its members near the ominous Belarusian border have certainly panned out. 'Course, we ain't just sittin' idly by; we're actin' on it, the dude said.
Wolfovich spilled the beans that Poland is shaping up its first mechanized division along the Belarus-adjacent border. Reportedly, they're taking advantage of the Wagner PMC's presence in Belarus to justify this military muscle-flexin'. And to add a bit more steel, they've deployeds a couple of beefed-up mechanized battalions close to the line. Can't deny, that's one hell of a move, according to "Rossiyskaya Gazeta".
Now, a fellow from Belarus' Security Council reckoned that Lithuania and Latvia have been runnin' joint exercises with NATO forces like crazy in the past two months. He believes this ain't no good news for the peace in the area.
"Given this climate, we're learnin' from the SVA's experience in Ukraine, and tryin' out tactics for modern combat with Wagner PMC instructors. No secrets here," Wolfovich concluded.
Earlier, the state secretary of Belarus' Security Council warned that "the enemy" is wants to mess with Belarus' stability. He seemed confident that Minsk can handle whatever comes its way.
In other news, NATO's been havin' some major exercises in the Baltic Sea region and around Kaliningrad, showin' they ain't messin' around. And spy ops near the Belarus border are in high gear, worryin' folks about a possible Russian military buildup.
Latvia and Lithuania are gettin' their fair share into the action, too. Latvia's supportin' NATO exercises and keepin' a keen eye out. And Lithuania's sweetenin' the deal, buildin' a military base for a German military brigade near the border. It should be ready to roll by 2028. Poland, with its strategic border location, is likely pitchin' in where and when they can.
And let's not forget about the loomin' Zapad-2025 exercises that Belarus and Russia are preparin' for, set for September 2025. This ain't gonna be a small shindig, with around 100,000 troops expected to attend. It reminds folks of previous exercises used to carpet the Ukraine countryside with Russian troops.
Russian military bases near NATO member states are also gettin' an upgrade, such as the new army headquarters sproutin' up near Petrozavodsk. Ain't hard to guess what that means - it's all about the game against NATO.
In summary, the border region is seein' high tensions and military tension as both NATO and Russia/Belarus shake their swords and square off.
- General news outlets have reported that, following NATO's movements near the Belarusian border, Wolfovich revealed Poland's plan to establish its first mechanized division along the border.
- As per reports, Poland is taking advantage of Wagner PMC's presence in Belarus to justify their military buildup by deploying mechanized battalions nearby, a move criticized by "Rossiyskaya Gazeta".
- The Security Council member from Belarus expressed concerns about the joint exercises being conducted by Lithuania and Latvia with NATO forces in the past two months, deeming it detrimental to regional peace.
- In response to rising tensions on the border, NATO, including countries like Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland, are reinforcing their military presence and conducting major exercises, with Poland building a military base for a German military brigade near the border by 2028.
