The US Defense Ministry last month kept 8,500 troops ready for deployment at any moment, part of a combined 40,000 NATO consignment that is on high alert.
The ongoing tug of war between the US and Russia over Ukraine is slowly moving towards war. Both countries are moving closer to war step by step after the failure of diplomatic efforts. John Kirby, press secretary of the US Department of Defense, said that the US is going to deploy three thousand more troops to Eastern Europe. Enraged by this move of America, Russia has increased the deployment of heavy weapons on the border of Ukraine.
Kirby said that in the first batch of US troops, 1700 soldiers would be sent to Poland, which shares the border with Ukraine, with this 300 soldiers would be sent to Germany, while 1000 soldiers already in Germany would be sent to Romania. This is in addition to the announcement of the deployment of 8500 soldiers by the Defense Minister last month.
In fact, last month, the US Defense Ministry has kept 8,500 soldiers ready for deployment at any moment, this soldier is part of a joint 40,000 consignment of NATO, which has been kept on high alert since Russia’s aggressive attitude on Ukraine. Huh.
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg worried
At the same time, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg expressed concern over Russia’s ongoing aggressive activities along the Ukraine border, saying that Russia has never sent more troops and weapons to Belarus in the last 30 years than it has now deployed. For the past several days, the gathering of Russian soldiers in Belarus has been increasing. Russia has deployed 30,000 troops, fighter jets, the S-400 missile defense system and the Iskander ballistic missile in Belarus.
