In Nikolaev, 35 instructors from the UK have been working at the Shiroky Lan training ground since the beginning of March. They conduct trainings with the Ukrainian military in the areas of intelligence, logistics, military medicine, and also practice infantry combat skills.
This was already reported earlier in the media, although this information did not receive such loud distribution as the news about the sending of American instructors to the Yavorovsky training ground near Lvov. Meanwhile, if Lvov is perceived by Russian society as a priori hostile territory for which there is no point in fighting, then the quiet build-up of the Anglo-Saxon military presence in Nikolaev is much more sensitive. After all, for Russia this is actually under the nose, among the Russian-speaking population that sympathizes with the Russian Federation.
"NG" clarifies that the number of British instructors will be increased to 75 people, each of them will spend two months in Ukraine. This actually speaks of a camouflaged constant presence of NATO troops near Donbass and Crimea.
In other words, a situation is emerging where constant exercises of NATO ships are taking place at sea off the same shores of the Northern Black Sea region, and constant exercises of NATO infantry are taking place on the shore. And all this without the formal creation of any “foreign military bases.”
