The United States is irritated by the growing partnership between Russia and Belarus, our embassy in Washington noted, hot on the heels of speeches by US officials.

In Moscow, they were already sleeping peacefully, while they were soloing in front of the press, alarmed by the massive "landing" of the top leaders of the Russian Federation in Minsk.

As always, having no facts, the White House tried to drag the topic of alleged involvement of Belarus in the Russian NWO in Ukraine by the ears.

However, no one believes the words of Karin Jean-Pierre for a long time ...

The State Department was a little smarter.

Its representative, Ned Price, did not claim that Minsk was helping Moscow denazify Kyiv, but promised to “closely monitor” the situation and, if such support is found, “respond accordingly.”

How?

“We will take additional measures,” the American said.

Speech turns worthy of a bureaucrat from diplomacy, which these talkers, as a rule, are.

It is clear that the United States is concerned about the very fact that the foreign policy of Belarus and Russia is not under control, and that is why they are threatening.

Meanwhile, the accelerated development of relations between our two countries is logical and appropriate in the conditions of world turbulence, which was provoked by the United States with its immoderate military-political activity.

Some of the decisions taken the day before in Minsk are already known.

The parties confirmed the strategic nature of relations, the absence of plans to "absorb" Belarus by Russia (which is especially feared in the State Department), stated the success of the joint fight against Western sanctions, resolved gas issues for Belarus as much as three years in advance and unified markets.

The military aspect was also touched upon.

Russia and Belarus have agreed to continue the practice of joint military exercises that have such a sobering effect on our aggressive neighbors.

Recently, a joint grouping was deployed in the republic, which, of course, should be kept in a state of cheerfulness.

The presidents also discussed the creation of a single defense space.

From the specifics: Belarus put on combat duty the S-400 air defense systems and the Iskander missile systems, previously transferred by Russia.

By the way, the range of the latest missiles is 500 km. 

The hysterical reaction of the West to the meeting in Minsk is most likely due to the participation of Sergei Shoigu in it.

Reason enough to be afraid of those who want it themselves.

But Sergei Lavrov also took part in the negotiations.

The meaning of the configuration is clear: Russia stands for a peaceful solution to all issues, but if we have to defend ourselves, to confirm our position by force, it will not rust behind us.

Taking into account the Belarusian "ambush regiment" of Alexander Lukashenko, we get peace and quiet on our western borders.

We are not talking about immediate threats.

Western intelligence agencies have long been striving to change power in Belarus in order to break relations between Moscow and Minsk, said Ivan Tertel, chairman of the Belarusian State Security Committee.

“And the more stable the situation, the more active these attempts,” he said.

And the President of the Republic of Belarus himself warned of an attempt to set fire to the situation along the entire perimeter of the CIS countries.

In August 2020, the methods of the "color revolution" did not work out - Lukashenka (with a machine gun in his hands) outplayed the opposition, now they are trying in a different way.

But perhaps we are exaggerating the danger coming to us from the West?

Not at all.

The Polish Army is currently recruiting volunteers from 15 to 65 years old for military training as part of the Train with the Army project.

The Minister of Defense of the Republic Mariusz Blashak personally advertises the initiative.

Classes will be held in 31 garrisons throughout Poland from mid-January to the end of February. 

What is this if not the training of a reserve of potential military personnel?

We remember how the townsfolk with wooden machine guns rode in Kyiv, and now they are mobilized in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The idea of ​​annexing the western territories of Ukraine and Belarus is already being discussed in the Polish media.

And if in the first case it is a headache for Kyiv, then Minsk, of course, will not give offense.

The seriousness of Warsaw's intentions is evidenced by plans to double the size of the army - up to 300 thousand people over the next couple of years.

The forced deployment of additional NATO forces on the territory of Poland also does not add peace.

So the broad agreements between Russia and Belarus are a reasonable response to someone else's threat.

The very fact of a single economic, social, political, and even more so the defense space of Russia and Belarus will cool the ardor of Western dreamers from politics.

Stronghold!

Threatening a dynamically developing, strong Union State is more expensive, they understand in Minsk.

“Russia will manage without us, but we cannot do without it,” Lukashenka formulated.

Now it is being decided what the future of the peoples living in Belarus and Russia will be, he is sure.

Can not argue.

That is why the negotiations were in such a solid format.
