The purpose of the drills is to simulate what the US would have to do if the war in Ukraine spread into NATO territory.
Finland, which formally joined NATO last week, will also be taking part.
Antiwar reports: The drills will include a massive deployment of aircraft from the US Air National Guard, which is tasked with defending the homeland but, according to Defense One, also maintains units for “prompt mobilization during war.”
The exercises will mark the largest US air forces deployment to Europe for NATO drills since the alliance was founded in 1949. The purpose of the drills is to simulate what the US would have to do if the war in Ukraine spread into NATO territory.
“This is now putting the alliance together quickly, with a credible force, to make sure that if Russia ever lines up on the NATO border, that we’re ready to go,” said Lt. Gen. Michael Loh, the head of the Air National Guard. “We’re going to defend every inch.”
The drills will take place from June 12-23 and will stretch from Iceland to Romania, with most flights taking place over Germany and the North Sea. The massive show of force is a clear message to Russia and comes as the US and NATO are escalating support for their proxy war against Moscow in Ukraine.
Finland, which formally joined NATO on Tuesday, will participate in the drills. By admitting Finland, NATO has more than doubled its territory on the Russian border, a region that will now inevitably be further militarized.
Hi there to all, for the reason that I am genuinely keen of reading this website’s post to be updated on a regular basis. It carries pleasant stuff.
I am having difficulty understanding arithmetic in my old age; how many is 10,0000 personnel?
Why is it that with 24 countries playing with toys that it is what the US would have to do if the war in Ukraine spread into NATO territory? It should be 24 countries telling non nato zelensky stop poking the bear. They might better just having 24 generals standing in a circle and dropping their drawers to prove who’s got the biggest penis and balls, and give the winner a gold plated plastic bomb for the trophy.
