Nice pics Valery.
Lukashenko deployed new S300 launchers because of our new F-16. Anyone know how many S300 has Belarus now?
On the tunguska matter... From USSR times .
On the matter of reunification...probably when the Eu will begin to harden in a more cohesive structure (a multi centered federative entity) others will follow that path. IF the BLRS hasn't been overtaken by a "liberal revolution" (how come oxymorons go unpunished by our time).
It means to me, Poland and NATO do not thread to Blrs. But only countre should have the reliable protection of the sky. From this there is a general safety.
Russia has a wild capitalism, Belarus preserved some form of socialism. The two countries are too far apart than you can ever possibly imagine. In fact Ukraine and Russia are more close economically (same economic model - few rich oligarchs, 80% bloody poor folks) than Belarus and Russia.
Sure
In fact, Russia is raw material supply for Belarus that doesn't have oil or gas for export but manufactures goods like advanced capitalist countries.
why shouldn't it be there? There is overhaul plant of it in Belarus, BTW.
