Abstract: The behavior of diluted antiferromagnets in an external magnetic field has been considered. It has been shown that, because the “force” of induced defects of the “random local field” type depends on the magnetic induction, the destruction of the long-range antiferromagnetic order by these defects in space of dimension $d\ge$ 2 is impossible.
