Russia’s NATO border states are building a massive new defensive line against invasion

Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia are building massive new fortifications along their borders with both Russia and Belarus in order to create a common defense line against possible future invasions by Moscow or its allies in Minsk.

The Baltic Defense Line as the project has come to be known was an important piece of a new agreement struck between the three nations aimed at reinforcing NATO’s borders with Russia, and the defense will only get tougher.

Latvian Defense Minister Andris Sprūds noted in a statement about the new agreement that he and the defense ministers of Estonia and Lithuania approved the new defensive fortifications to protect each nation at a broader level.

“From a military perspective, this initiative will significantly boost our capability to protect our borders at the national level,” Sprūds explained. “We will be able to slow down and block the movement of potential aggressors more efficiently.”

Maybe they will name it something cool, like The Berlin Wall redux.

Fixed fortifications channel an attacker toward terrain that favors the defender.

Which is why Ukraine is never getting an inch of liberated territory back.

Y'know, Kazan is really hostile even for a Russian. I wonder if he has a shrine to Stalin above his workstation.

I do not believe Ruzzia will go beyond YouCraynee Border.


You should really have a conversion with some well placed Russians who continue to plan for the eventual conflict with NATO in a year or two, in order to restore various Russian speaking groups to the USSR v.2
