US troops will remain in Eastern Europe to deter "Russian aggression"

31
The US military will remain in the Baltic countries and Poland next year due to “Russian aggression”, reports RIA News the words of the head of the European command of the US Army Frederick Hodges.

US troops will remain in Eastern Europe to deter "Russian aggression"


“The US Armed Forces will be here in Lithuania, as well as in Estonia, Latvia and Poland, as long as it is necessary to restrain Russian aggression”- said Hodges in Vilnius.

According to him, "Russia is trying to intimidate its neighbors with military exercises and frequent airspace violations." “Discipline and unity of nations is extremely important at this moment so that a small incident does not lead to something that should not have happened”- said the general.

Since April, 600 paratroopers from the USA have been stationed in Poland and the Baltic States. The heads of these countries had previously expressed the wish that overseas military men would be permanently in their states. The Americans offered the Europeans more frequent military exercises, indicating that they did not plan to place a permanent contingent in the region.

As is known, against the background of the Ukrainian crisis, NATO strengthened the air patrols of Eastern European countries, introduced additional ships into the Baltic and Mediterranean seas and announced an increase in its military contingent at the Russian borders.

    Who would doubt it is, first and foremost, control over the satellites. Now they will not be smoked from Europe for a long time, but they will not leave.

      It is not sickly to keep troops in Afghanistan, Iraq (either there, or not) and even in Eastern Europe. When will their budget burst? what

        When will their budget burst?
        It will burst when the State Banks stop buying their debentures ..
        And for this it is necessary to subordinate the Central Bank to the government.
        But the Muscovites, who destroyed the Union in 91, for some reason are in no hurry to support GDP. About 1000 people went to the rally .. Shame, Moscow ..!

          Yeah, shame on me from a Muscovite. Nothing that neither my relatives nor my friends ever supported the Stavropol Gorbachev and Sverdlovsk Yeltsin? They didn’t shoot at the parliament (and some defended) and did not wander around the marshes. Lovely logic, never Muscovites Gorbachev, Yakovlev, Shevarnadze destroyed the country, and we are to blame.

          Yes, the United States and Britain are ready to protect everyone from the Russian threat anywhere in the world, even if there is no such threat. But their bases, which were stationed in Europe after the Great War, have not been removed, although Russia has removed everything, so who should Europe be protected from, from the invaders with their bases, which have occupied Europe?

      General Hake did not take into account one trifle. To get under the command of a company of Russian paratroopers, the Amer general rank will not be enough. You must be, at a minimum, a senior lieutenant of the Russian Armed Forces! No other way. Only dreams!

    They found a reason to maintain their military presence in Europe, which has declined in the last decade. Or maybe they themselves created this reason.

      Since April, 600 US paratroopers have been stationed in Poland and the Baltic States. The leaders of these countries previously expressed the desire that the overseas military be in their states on an ongoing basis.

      I wonder who can be restrained or scared by 600 unfortunate Americans scattered across Europe, pissing (sorry!) In diapers and wanting to get home faster? Who should be scared?

    "600 US paratroopers stationed"
    Are they really counting on such a handful to stop the "Russian invasion" ?! Or is it said to bring peace to the malachol souls of the Baltic "tigers", who have a severe stomach upset and a nervous breakdown at the word "Russia" ?!

    << Since April, 600 US paratroopers have been stationed in Poland and the Baltic states.

The time will come and they will simply "get" the local population and they will just start beating.

    About little sprats were trampled and written in flower beds by the warriors "light elves", and meanwhile Takeshi Onaga became the governor of Okinawa.
    Takeshi Onaga, who does not agree with the plans of the Prime Minister to relocate the US military base to the sparsely populated part of the island. Instead, Onaga wants Futenma Air Force Base, which has about 26 US troops, to be completely withdrawn from Okinawa. This is partly due to the fact that local residents are unhappy with the crime rate around the base. laughing

    Rossi time to begin to spoil Matrasia and their allies. Work in the same way as the Americans worked in Georgia, Syria, Egypt, Ukraine.

    We create public foundations, we cough up the population, prepare radicals, .... bang and chaos has come!
    And there, the help of volunteers will come in time, all sorts of ethnic Poles, Germans, Latvians, Estonians, eager to stand up for their own weapons in their hands, there are many. They will look at the family names and for sure - Germans, Poles, Latvians, Estonians, Lithuanians, Bulgarians, etc. Russia has nothing to do with it - volunteers! Volunteers support their oppressed brothers, whose rallies were brutally crushed!
    The world community is indignant.
    Then they torture themselves to restore order and restore and reconcile the economy to everyone.

    It will be cheaper for us. And you still have to fight either this way or that with zombie maydaunas.
    The United States did not extinguish the fire in its own house for a long time. So they look at strangers in order to tidy up their hands? They will help Europe carry buckets of bucks with bucks, and even smear them in shit, if all this is properly lifted.

    The inhabitants of Latvia demanded that they leave NATO and the EU, 10 thousand protesters poured into the streets of Riga, riots started ... 600 American paratroopers were swept away by the crowd =) they were stoned ...
    BRICS supported the protesters. The UN demanded not to interfere in the internal affairs of the Latvian state.
    Half the country speaks in Russ, a lot of Russians ... well, what else is needed, to spend 2-3 thousand Latvians to the heap ???

    Well, something like this










    Then our partners will have to deal with solving their internal problems.

    Six hundred Marines for four countries ?! Well, fuck off so uncle Sam fucked off to his brothers in arms. I’m wondering: how will they restrain “Russian aggression”? What are we trying to cross the border during exercises? And will they walk along the border with scary mugs and scare our people?

    Now Russia has good relations with the countries of Latin America. Probably it's time to probe the question of our bases in these countries.

    Since April, 600 paratroopers from the USA have been stationed in Poland and the Baltic States.

    So after all, in Poland, or in the Baltic states, is the "unfortunate" pdb 173 ovdbr (stationed in Italy) deployed? Not there, and not there, because transferred from Italy for the period of the exercises. And from the combat units, the Stryker brigade (2 brigade) and the helicopter brigade (12 arr AA) are based in Germany.
