That's simply not true. All Debian releases have been LTS since 2014, for the following architectures : i386, amd64, armhf and arm64.

All Debian releases get 1 year of full updates after the new release, and at least 5 years of updates in total from their initial publication.

After the first couple of years, Debian Security stops patching it. "Debian LTS is not handled by the Debian Security team, but by a separate group of volunteers and companies interested in making it a success.",from https://wiki.debian.org/LTS. It is not the same thing, and the time scales and patching consistency is not on the same scale.
