Rear Echelon
You must read it in full its chock full of excellent analysis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How the heck did I miss these developments???? LOL
Excerpts:
"The Baltic Sea, in recent times, has become somewhat more of a potential low-conflict zone. This, of course, because of the Joint German-Russian pipeline that is supposed to run through it, and for which construction is supposed to start next year already."
"On September 14th, the German and Russian Navy signed a bilateral cooperation treaty (i.e. outside existing NATO PfP arrangements) to "improve joint operations against new threats". "
"Ships of the Baltic Fleet have paid friendly visits to German events in 2007 - such as a Neustrashimy at the Kieler Woche - and Russian and German rear-echelon officials have exchanged concepts and ideas with regard to coastal security and environmental protection since 2006."
Holy Crap!!!!!!!!!! High conflict zone if you ask me!!!LOL
NO wonder the Russians want the Baltic Republics and Poland back and have been constantly threatening those nations.
I ddint realize they had a "real reason" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is not good IMHO. Well its good for Germany but not so Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia and Poland. And maybe not Finland.
As if Russia has not destabilized the region enough as it is now this?
No wonder Putin is blasting the US at every opportunity.
IMHO this has all the potential to start the unraveling of NATO just what Putin wants.
