Belarusian Armed Forces to Receive New Armored Vehicles

According to the agreement signed between the Belarusian Defence Ministry and Ministry of National Defence of the People's Republic of China on the provision of gratuitous military-technical assistance, the supply of a new batch of equipment and assets will start from June 21. This time China will provide the Belarusian Armed Forces with the up-to-date CS/VN3 armored vehicles produced in Chongqing.

Last week, the Belarusian servicemen, who were trained to maintain and operate these samples at the Chinese plant based in Chongqing, returned from the People's Republic of China.

Let us recall that this supply of gratuitous military-technical assistance from Chine is not the first one. In spring of 2015, Chine supplied the Belarusian Armed Forces with the FAW HongQi L5 (“Red Banner”) grand vehicles, while a few years earlier – with the DongFeng Mengshi EQ2050 cross-country vehicles known as “Bogatyr”.
