[Longbowman]

Belglased on valmis mehi siiakanti juurde saatma, kui ärevamaks läheb. Siiski üldsõnaline.

Kogu see USA reaktsioon on ikka halenaljakas vaadata. Sisuliselt ei saakski enam vähem saata kedagi, ega mõttetumatest üksustest. Mõnituhat kergjalaväelast 0 tehnikaga.

Nõustun täiesti selle jutuga:

Venemaa korraldab 30 aasta suurima vägede liigutamise, sisuliselt tassib Valgevene esmakordselt kurguauguni asju täis ...

On US troops to Europe, let’s get a grip. There are 130,000 Russian troops near Ukraine. US is sending 1,700 new troops to Romania & 1,000 Germany-based ones to Poland—on a temporary basis. For comparison, 20,000 Americans were involved in the Trident Juncture exercise in 2018.

The US troops are light forces and some Strykers... no tanks, no IFVs, no missile artillery, no Patriots, no howitzers, no F-22, no F-35, not even a few A-10. The US troops are just there to show intent. They are useless to stop Russia's mechanized force.

Teinud siis vähemalt seda mida Trident Juncture õppusel harjutati.

Vaja oleks olnud vähemalt kahe-kolme raskebrigaadi tehnika juba jaanuaris laevaga teele panna ja praegu peaks valmistagu ette vähemalt kaheksa brigaadi liigutamist, siis oleks üldse millestki rääkida.

Ülim naljanumber kahjuks

Sõnum peaks selge olema, et ameeriklased tulevad ...

Minu jaoks ei ole siin midagi naljakat või mõttetut.

Ära unusta, et USA ei saada sõdureid Ukrainasse sõdima. Lisaks on vägede kvaliteedis suur erinevus. Pakun puusalt, et kui Baltikumi piiride taga passiks 100K vene sõdurit, piisaks igas Balti riigis ühest brigaadist koos tehnikaga (ca 15K sõdurit kokku), kui reidil on lennukikandja ja sellega kaasas olev laevastik. Praegusel juhul on tegu ettevalmistava faasiga võimalikeks halvemateks stsenaariumiteks. Tehnikat saab kiiresti liigutada laevade või rongidega.

Ühe ameerika sõduri haavata saamine või isegi hukkumine võrdustatakse rünnakuna USA vastu sellele jägnevate tagajärgedega.

Ärge kartke Hungarit vaid Slovakkiat.
https://cepa.org/slovakia-unhappily-int ... frontline/

In the eyes of 44% of citizens, according to a poll last month, the US and the transatlantic alliance have caused the threat faced by Ukraine. Some 35% blamed Russia. This is having serious consequences for possible alliance plans to station forces in the country, on Ukraine’s western border. The man behind much of the anti-Western rhetoric, former prime minister Robert Fico, appears to be reveling in the fight. This week he upped the rhetorical ante, branding President Zuzana Čaputová — a centrist who enjoys widespread international respect — “an American agent”.

The country has been treated in recent days to extraordinary scenes in parliament. Lawmakers spent February 8 dousing fellow MPs in water, blowing whistles to drown out attempts to debate the country’s defense, and pushing and shoving each other in what at times came perilously close to a brawl. At one point, nationalists draped a Slovak flag over the speaker’s podium, while pro-government opponents responded by holding aloft a Ukrainian flag.

Biden lubab oma praeguses pöördumises USA kogu jõuga NATO liitlasi kaitsta:

I will not send American servicemen to fight in Ukraine. [but] the United States will defend every inch of NATO territory with the full force of American power. An attack against one NATO country is an attack against all of us.
