Russian general chafes at 'provocative' NATO drills

Soldiers from NATO countries attend an opening ceremony of military exercise 'Saber Strike 2015', at the Gaiziunu Training Range in Pabrade north of the capital Vilnius, Lithuania, on Monday, June 8, 2015. MOSCOW -- The Russian military on Monday accused the U.S. and its NATO allies of conducting "provocative" military drills near the nation's borders, a statement that reflected simmering Russia-NATO tensions.

Rudskoi also pointed at an increased number of flights by U.S. nuclear-capable strategic bombers near Russia's frontiers last month. He said U.S. B-1B strategic bombers last week flew over Ukraine for the first time ever, prompting Russia to scramble fighter jets and put air defence forces on alert. "The U.S,. and its allies are continuing to destroy Europe's security system under the guise of a perceived "Russian aggression,"' Rudskoi said.

Russia tried to violate our Northern borders regularly. Russia marched into Ukraine killing many. Russia intimidates U.S. warships. Now they can see the West is serious! Fuck Russia 🇷🇺!

Ironic, the country that has manditory military service, but only uses it to abuse their own soldiers at the low ranks, calls out NATO
