Odo Puiu Info invites you to watch …. Zapad 2017 || Russian And Belarusian Troops Are The Best Military Force In The World ! — The country does not exist, so it has neither an army nor any real citizens, though it has acquired a feisty following of would-be patriots online. Starting on Thursday, however, the fictional state, Veishnoriya, a distillation of the Kremlin’s darkest fears about the West, becomes the target of the combined military might of Russia and its ally Belarus. The nation was invented to provide an enemy to confront during a six-day joint military exercise that is expected to be the biggest display of Russian military power since the end of the Cold War a quarter-century ago. The exercise, known as Zapad-2017, is the latest iteration of a series of training maneuvers that began under the Soviet Union in the 1970s. After a long break following the collapse of communism, Zapad was revived in 1999 and then was expanded after Vladimir V. Putin became president at the end of that year. Zapad, “west” in Russian, used to include military forces from countries under the Warsaw Pact, the Soviet-led military alliance whose non-Soviet members have now all joined NATO. Today, the military exercise has shrunk to just two participants — Russia and Belarus — but it is still viewed warily by military planners in the West. ⚠️ The United States military has echoed such worries, Zapad as a possible “Trojan horse” that would send in Russian forces but not take them out. Belarus, which depends on Russian supplies of cheap energy to keep its economy afloat and shares Mr. Putin’s belief that the West is plotting to sow division and even to invade, says it has no such concerns itself.
