United States Conducts Military Exercises in Narva
Lesson Brief
Новое Время - Украина
As the conflict in Ukraine continues, the United States has been increasing its presence on the eastern front of NATO. In the north, military exercises have been regularly taking place in the Baltic States and Poland, and in the south in Romania, Bulgaria, and Hungary. Last week, an American convoy rotated home to its base in Germany, now without traveling through several NATO cities including Riga and Bialystok. The US and NATO are making a point that Moscow shouldn't think about doing what it has done in Ukraine, in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, or Poland.
