The efforts of the Belarusian border guards are of enormous importance in protecting our borders now that the NATO is building up its presence near our borders. The additional maneuvers are also taking place under the guise of Defender of Europe exercises. Most of the participants are the United States military personnel. The NATO reconnaissance aviation is studying the territory of Belarus on a daily basis. All these facts require the security forces to take a set of measures in order to prevent provocations and escalation of the situation into a hot phase.
Modernization of Belarusian army
The urgent security issues were discussed at a meeting with the President the other day. They spoke once again about modernization of our army. We have learned lessons from the Ukrainian conflict. Based on the situation around Belarus, we have adjusted directions for the development of the Armed Forces of the country. Special operations forces are the basis at this stage. The Belarusian army is also planning to create the Southern Operational Command.
The Belarusian army keeps mastering the modern means of arms and studying new forms and methods of warfare. This week the Armed Forces started the next stage of the inspection of the response forces. A lot of attention is paid to the state of equipment and its readiness to carry out tasks.
