Dashing Eagle 15

It turns out we are not the only country that cross trains with out nations armed forces. China recently sent an Airborne Special Operation Company to train with Belarus for "anti-terrorist" missions. And it turns out this is not a new thing, having been previously held in 2011 and 2012. Looks like we aren't the only on with interests in the region.

And coming in September we get Operation Union Shield between Russia and Belarus. But its ok, its purely defensive according to Belarus's military's website. After all, according to Sputnik, a Russian propaganda news site, NATO is clearly the aggressor. 

Because Russia has never staged a military exercise on a nation's border to make a point....

After all, they are only casually drilling 80,000 Soldiers. Not like when they drilled 150,000 soldiers on Europes' doorstep.

We may exercise more often, but Russia drills more Soldiers.

The message seems clear. Dont intervene in Ukraine.
