According to the latest sources that have been coming in, the United States of America has been on a spree of increasing it’s army in the eastern part of the European continent. It says that this stance is in response to counter the movements of “aggressive Russia”.
An extra-armoured brigade shall be deployed, and that would sum up to a number of three units patrolling regularly. The increased presence is stated to enhance America’s ability to carry out stringent military exercises in the region. Each such brigade would be on a regular and balanced rotation throughout for a period of approximately nine months, before being renewed. A single brigade consists of near about 4,200 well-equipped soldiers, alongside the military vehicles and other necessary equipments.
Meanwhile, some of the Eastern European nations have been alarmed by the continuous Russian intervention in Ukrainian developments.
Relations between Russia and the West have ‘plummeted’ ever since the country annexed the Crimean peninsula in March, two years ago.
The intervention aroused fears and beliefs stating that Russia could have been considering other such interventions and incursions too in it’s other neighbouring states.
