NATO preparing for massive military exercises as Russia continues invasion of Ukraine
2022-05-01
From the Fox News live blog:
Tens of thousands of troops from NATO and its European allies are gearing up for a series of military exercises that the United Kingdom is calling one of the "largest shared deployments since the Cold War."

Now we challenge Putin: Britain sends tanks, attack helicopters, artillery and 8,000 soldiers to Eastern Europe in one of the largest deployments since Cold War

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • The British Army will send 8,000 troops to east Europe to take part in exercises

  • Nato and Joint Expeditionary Force alliance nations will also be deploying

  • It will be one of the largest military exercises in Europe since the Cold War

  • An army general says our show of 'training and agility' will deter aggression

#3  Let's move a huge mass of troops to the Poland-Ukr border. That will reassure the Russians that NATO is not a threat. Or convince them that they made the right move by preemptively trying for a more defensible position.

#2  I imagine it will be incredible bluff and bluster for the masses without any 'red line' threat.
