violate international and european law. the security forces bring helpless people to the border, sometimes without warm clothes, sick and even dying. there were cases when half-dead or already dead people were thrown through animal gates or other refugees were forced to drag corpses through the fence. in 2023 , almost twice as many people have already died at the border than in the previous 2 years combined . how many people died on... the other side of the border is unknown, tragic statistics are kept silent, media access volunteers to the border areas are limited, human rights organizations that talk about violence are persecuted by local authorities, and criminal cases are even initiated against individual representatives. now let’s talk about crossing the border within the framework of the law, and if i’m not mistaken, if my latest statistics are correct, that literally this is...

our cultural values, see some sights, and, accordingly, buy our high-quality belarusian goods. today, yes, today is somewhat difficult cross the state border every time due to the closure of a large number of checkpoints, primarily road crossings. well, finally, probably, about plans for this year, what tasks the department and , in general, our border guards set for 2024. the border guards always have one, main task, and the president of the republic of belarus, alexander grigoryevich lukashenko, demands from us, this is reliable protection of the state security borders, but the president’s tasks for the upcoming period of protecting the state border were additionally discussed, this is of course timely and adequate response to challenges to the national interests of the republic of belarus in the field.

protection of the protection of the state border as a whole in the border area, this, of course, is the development and improvement of combat training, the combat proficiency of our border guards, the further development of the material and technical base , the creation of the necessary conditions for the life of military personnel of the border service, the development of the mobilization component and paying attention to personnel . primarily emergency services, for whom it is most difficult to get used to the peculiarities of the border service with the peculiarities of protected areas on the state border, and one of the main tasks is the peace of mind of our citizens in our border areas, so that there are no prerequisites for hostilities, violations, provocations, etc. further.

these are the main tasks, thank you very much for this interview, and i will remind our tv viewers that we spoke about the situation at the border with the chairman of the state border committee konstantin molostov, this is how the situation is unfolding in the sky, my colleague yuri shevchuk asked the chief of the general staff of the armed forces of belarus. yes, ilona, ​​near the belarusian state borders, a group of nato air forces is concentrated. as viktor gulevich told us in an interview, it was. made as part of operation safe podlasie. how such a presence affects the protection of state borders in the sky, we’ll talk in more detail with the chief of the general staff of the armed forces of belarus. the president first approved a decision to protect air borders last year. that's it it turns out that this is more your vodka than the border troops. please tell me how it is today. this is the direction

of protecting state borders in the sky, in any case, the air force, air defense troops are intended to stand as guards in our defense. air boundaries, the forces and means that our sky defenders have make it possible to detect aircraft that can move on the territory of our republic and take timely and adequate response measures to them, as i understand it, this is a 24x7 process, as they say, it takes place , of course, the routine duty system functions constantly, if necessary , it can be expanded in order to lower the threshold value and increase our capabilities for... a group of air forces of nato countries is concentrated near the belarusian state border. in such a situation, the armed forces of belarus are taking additional measures to build up the radar field, the forces of radio technical troops and reps, which can successfully detect intruder ships, and

also to influence them, we have in our arsenal the dislocation stations vostok enemy sopka are some of the best in the world, a solid arsenal, etc.

the president today drew the attention of the minister of defense, in the person of all military personnel, that under no circumstances should we allow any random developments or events on our border. what steps are taken by military personnel today to protect the state border? well, in

any case, our capabilities are being increased through the purchase of new modern models of technical military missile forces. electronic warfare. which make it possible to control the airspace above our country as tightly as possible, i know that sof troops take an active part in protecting state borders, please tell us what tasks are assigned to them, here are the areas in which they can work, if i may say, special operations forces carry out tasks in southern operational direction, their functions are currently intended to assist territorial... border services, precisely in the south of our country, they work with them, well, if the air force troops control the air, then they are already working on the ground, well , i know there, and such standard activities as a checkpoint are being practiced, again , reinforcement in some forest areas, you can

tell us in a little more detail what they are doing guys, the main task is that they conduct surveillance of the border strip, carry out searches independently, together with the border service authorities. and their main task is to react in a timely manner when normal situations arise. again, when i worked with such groups, i saw that drones are actively being used for such tasks, how much does such technology help to carry out tasks today? the technical equipment of the special operations forces unit is achieved through drones, achieved through more advanced surveillance equipment, thermal imaging cameras, which are carried out.

they include the protection of the state border in our unit in their training plans for the academic year. during their activities, they go to the state border, where they perform tasks together with the border guard. on earth, as this one goes here is the work, that is, the guys communicate with each other, that is, again, this is personal communication, rather than more on radio stations, as it is necessary to take into account here that those units that go to the state border, they perform the functions of representatives of the border service, based on this the squads , as a rule, go together, that is, they stand shoulder to shoulder on the border to protect the borders of our homeland, as they say, they work in tandem, one might say, increasing the number. violations of the state border and provocations from western neighbors, and also, from the southern neighbor of ukraine

, they once again emphasize the importance of maintaining formations and military units in constant readiness, so that if necessary, they will be able to fulfill the assigned tasks to ensure the military security of the country, protect the peaceful sky and the tranquility of our population. last year, right near our borders, nato defender exercises took place, which brought together 25,000 troops from 27. defender racks - this is already one of the components, the complex of these exercises has already become much wider, they are united under a common

called defender, the same training complex will include both a staunch defender and a defender of europe, they will last from february to may, a large group of up to 90,000 will really be involved, the scope of these exercises is large, the last time was 125,000 - this was back during the confrontation between the warsaw countries treaty and nato countries, that is, really. reaching a higher level in the use of nato forces in such large operational-strategic exercises. naturally, our armed forces, first of all, we control what happens, we are monitoring the situation both on the ground, regarding the creation of groups, and in the air. what actions will be taken directly during the exercise? in any case , our intelligence capabilities will be increased in order to control. what is happening in a certain territory, in a certain airspace, i am not asking you to name any numbers, but nevertheless i know that

the equipment is drawn to the borders, it remains there, it continues, in terms of technology at the moment there is only a preparatory period, a movement is taking place, western countries are currently working out the transfer capabilities, that is, they are honing their logistics for the transfer of creation.

the largest nato exercise since the cold war kicks off this week. they will also take place in neighboring countries. belarus, poland and the baltic countries. based on the scale of the idea, it’s easy to guess that this is a kind of rehearsal for the third world war. and if earlier in the alliance, during such exercises , they talked about an unspecified enemy from the east, now they say directly, this the enemy - moscow, considering belarus as an ally, is dissatisfied with the nuclear

warheads stationed in belarus. it makes me laugh that the teachings will supposedly be carried out. defensive in nature, but looking at the nature of the weapons and the number of contingents, the military of the union state evaluates this situation with the wording: this is different. and i’m with you, ksenia lebedeva, hello! the essence of the exercise is to rehearse the movement of american forces towards countries bordering russia. in case a conflict suddenly breaks out. in the exercises, which will also take place at territory of poland and the baltic countries, more than 50 ships, about 80 fighter aircraft, drone helicopters and at least a thousand combat vehicles, including 133 tanks and 533 infantry fighting vehicles, will take part. moreover, back in

september 2023, the head of the nato military committee, admiral rob bauer, announced. a much smaller scale of training, there were plans to involve only 40,000 military personnel, but as a result this figure was more than doubled, the question is for what? at the opening of a meeting of the nato military committee last admiral rob bauer said this week that the international rules-based order is under enormous pressure, but before we listen to him, we would like to understand what rules we are talking about, single-sex rules...

we defend freedom and democracy. in general, i have a lot of questions for the guys from the north atlantic alliance, because the impression is that they are from a completely different planet and have no contact with reality at all. they talk about defense, while preparing for an attack, they talk about democracy, but at the same time they deprive everyone around them of the right to choose and freedom of speech. here's another democrat among us. today our world is under threat: war, terrorism, instability, authoritarian states threaten our values, we need a strong nato more than ever, a strong nato is what we have. according to the legend that will be practiced during the exercises, russia

will defeat the ukrainian army and allegedly attack one of the countries in the east of the alliance, in the suwalki area. corridor, both nato and russian troops will be concentrated, this is shown on the map, this information was actually announced german publication bilt, citing a secret document of the german ministry of defense. at the same time , french politician florian philippot said that nato officials too often say that the alliance is not looking for a conflict with russia, but at the same time it is conducting an exercise of unprecedented scale. repeats this so often that it becomes suspicious: we are poor in conflict, but we must be prepared if russia attacks us. beware of a false flag operation, like the nord stream sabotage in '22, in the coming months. these nato madmen are ready for all. while nato is preparing for exercises and fighting at the borders of belarus, our security

bloc is working to maintain peace in the region and suppress all kinds of provocations. the usa and germany, conducting with their participation, operational tactical level exercises , in total up to 12 exercises were held in 2023, the main place, in addition to the border contingent, they brought up the armed forces there, both latvia and lithuania, especially. frankly speaking, the price. it should be noted once again that at the moment final preparations are underway for the two most important documents.
