Washington is in talks with Berlin and Warsaw to carry joint army manoeuvres in Poland in response to Russia’s risk to the jap border of the NATO alliance, German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius stated Sunday.
Exercises had been being “considered”, Pistorius advised public broadcaster ARD, with out confirming or including any particulars “for now”.
Military manoeuvres in a rustic bordering Ukraine, invaded one yr in the past by Russia, would ship a “very clear” sign to NATO allies “but also to (Russian President Vladimir) Putin,” he added.
NATO “is far from being as weak as (Putin) has believed for a long time,” stated Pistorius.
“It’s a lot stronger and more united than last year” earlier than Russian troops’ February 2022 assault.
Even so, “for countries in eastern Europe, like Poland, the Baltic states, Slovakia and others, it’s important to see that Germany as the most important European member of the alliance, and the US as transatlantic partner, are upholding their defence obligations”, he added.
