This Sunday, the Orzysz maneuvering field, in Poland, was the location chosen for new military maneuvers open to the public.<\/p>\n

In this exercise, called Jesienny Ogie\u0144 (Autumn Fire), Poland has shown some of the new weapons systems<\/strong> that it has been receiving recently in its process to increase its defensive resources against the threat from Russia: tanks M1A1 Abrams and K2 Black Panther<\/strong>, self-propelled howitzers K9 Thunder<\/strong>, multiple missile launchers M-142 HIMARS<\/strong>, combat vehicles infantry BWP Borsuk and KTO Rosomak<\/strong> and also the UH-60 Black Hawk<\/strong> helicopters of its Special Forces.<\/p>\n

Significantly, and as I have pointed out on other occasions, the Orzysz Military Training Center is only 58 km from the Polish border with Russia<\/strong>, specifically with the enclave of Kaliningrad, occupied by the USSR at the end of the Second World War. Thus, this formidable display of military power by Poland is not coincidental, and shows what today is already one of the most powerful European armies in NATO<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The exercise coincided with the anniversary of the 1939 Soviet invasion<\/big><\/p>\n

It must be said that this Polish exercise is not a provocation, but a declaration of firmness after<\/strong> the threat launched by the Russian State Duma against Poland last year<\/a>, stating that it would be the next to be attacked after Ukraine. A threat against which Poland is only acting accordingly. Let us also remember that this September 17 is the anniversary of the Soviet invasion of Poland in 1939<\/strong>, a stab in the back orchestrated by Hitler and Stalin after the German invasion of September 1 of that year. Two years ago, the Putin regime justified this invasion by calling it a \"liberation.\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Polska Zbrojna's spectacular video about this exercise<\/big><\/p>\n

This afternoon, the Polish military newspaper Polska Zbrojna<\/a> has published a sensational video about this exercise<\/strong> (impossible to put more things and better exposition in just 2 and a half minutes and with such good musical accompaniment):<\/p>\n
