Increasing defense capabilities: Poland and Lithuania's plans for the borders with Russia and Belarus

The former commander of the Polish Army, Waldemar Skrzypczak, said that it is necessary to build fortifications and minefields on the border with Russia and Belarus.


He emphasized that a conflict with Russia seems unlikely, but we need to be prepared.


Skrzypczak called for the construction to start now so that the fortified areas become impregnable in the event of a military conflict.


The general also believes that Europe needs to prepare, to create well-armed troops in case of any possible threats.
