Since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, although Western countries have been continuously providing weapons and ammunition assistance to Ukraine , in order to avoid direct conflict with the Russian army, Western countries have not directly sent troops to Ukraine to participate in the war. Although the US media previously broke the news that commandos from the CIA and the British Special Forces are operating in Ukraine, they are secret activities and are not directly sending troops from the United States and the United Kingdom.
However, as the Russia-Ukraine war lasted longer and longer, the Ukrainian army showed obvious decline, and the United States became anxious. Although it still did not directly send troops to participate in the war, it increased military deployment to the eastern flank of Europe.
According to reports, on June 29, local time, US President Biden announced that he would send more troops to Europe to strengthen NATO's defense capabilities against Russia.
reported that Biden announced on the same day that the US military would establish a permanent military base in Poland . It is reported that the new "forward command post" previously established by the United States in Poland was completed in 2020, but only 200 people are currently deployed in the command post.
As the conflict between Russia and Ukraine broke out and escalated, Washington realized that it needed to deploy more troops on NATO's eastern flank to enhance NATO's defense against Russia.
Therefore, the United States plans to permanently deploy "forward command posts" and garrison headquarters, as well as a support force in Poland, and continue to increase its strength.
It is reported that this is the first time that the United States has deployed a permanent garrison on the eastern flank of NATO. Polish Foreign Minister Zbigniew Law said that this means that NATO will respond appropriately to Russia's "aggression" in Ukraine.
Since the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Western countries have not only continued to condemn Russia, but also imposed thousands of sanctions on Russia and continuously provided weapons to help Ukraine fight against the Russian army.
In fact, NATO has already responded to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, including providing weapons to Ukraine and deploying more troops in Poland and other Eastern European countries.
Now the Polish Foreign Minister has threatened that NATO will respond appropriately to Russia's "invasion" of Ukraine. This makes people start to wonder: Will the US military and NATO troops personally join the war?
Although the United States has previously emphasized its unwillingness to have a military conflict with Russia, as the situation becomes increasingly tense, the possibility of a direct conflict between Russia and the United States is also increasing, so the US military does have the possibility of directly participating in the war.
In addition to recently announcing that he will send more troops to Poland, he also announced that he will add a rotational brigade to be deployed in Romania , as well as increase rotational deployments to the Baltic countries.
Not only that, the United States also plans to deploy two F-35 fighter groups to the Lakenheath base near Cambridge, England, which means that more than 50 U.S. military stealth fighters will be deployed in the United Kingdom.
In addition, the United States also plans to enhance the air defense capabilities of Germany and Italy and send two additional naval destroyers to Spain, which are obviously deployments aimed at Russia.
On the same day, NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg said that Russia has posed the most direct and serious threat to the Western military alliance.
Therefore, the next series of military deployments by the United States are obviously to contain Russia. In response, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov responded strongly.
He said that the West wants to scare or contain Russia through some actions, but he wants to tell Western countries: they will never succeed, and doing so will be fruitless.
At the same time, Ryabkov also issued a warning to Western countries. He said that if NATO deploys more troops in countries and regions close to Russia, it will undoubtedly trigger a response from Russia.
Russia and the United States are the two strongest military powers in the world. Once a direct conflict occurs, it will inevitably be a large-scale war, and it may even trigger the Third World War.
The Russian Foreign Minister has previously issued a warning, saying that if the third world breaks out, it will definitely be a nuclear war , and all mankind will be destroyed by nuclear bombs.Therefore, Russia-US relations are not only related to the development of the two countries, but also related to the security of all mankind. We hope that both Russia and the United States can exercise restraint, otherwise no country will be the winner if a war breaks out.
