According to today's Russian Television (RT), the Washington Post recently reported that the United States and NATO were sent to Eastern European countries on the grounds of responding to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. The Baltic countries and Poland have been asking the United States to accelerate weapons transportation and expand the deployment of military personnel because they are worried that they will become a "next attacked" country.

The article states that these countries, like Ukraine, are not members of NATO, but they are also allies in the United States. They have expressed urgent need for more Western military assistance. Latvian Defense Minister Artis Pabriks said during the country's US Defense Minister Austin this month that armed Latvia is as important as armed Ukraine because there is a risk of "coming to our border" in the existence of war. It is understood that about 600 American soldiers are currently deployed in Latvia, while only about 100 people last winter.

The Washington Post states that the Bayeng government has vowed to strengthen joint exercises in the region to improve the degree of defense capabilities and other key combat skills, and the place of exercise is located in the Baltic countries. At present, about 100,000 U.S. troops have been deployed throughout Europe, of which 20,000 people have increased in recent months, and the focus of deployment has become more and more concentrated in Eastern Europe.

The article also said that officials in the Baltic Sea and Eastern Europe said that more importantly, the military industry production line should start the "turbocharged mode" to accelerate the long -term accumulated weapons orders for these "frontline countries".

Kusti Salm, executive secretary of the Ministry of Defense of Estonia, said in an interview with the US media: "'Halmas' Rockets," Death' drone, anti -artillery radar. What Russia is urgently needed. We are on the verge of adventure. Using some of our reserves will bring very serious risks to our national security. I know that there are other allies doing the same thing. Therefore, the only solution It is to quickly improve the production capacity and ensure that the policy framework and policy financing signals are supported. "

Krzysztof Nolbert, a Polish Embassy in the United States, also said, "Winning this war (Russia and Ukraine) is absolutely important for European security." He also said that Poland is the third largest assistant country of the Ukrainian army. Western countries often urge Western countries to "more decisive rather than gradual" to support Kyiv, including sending fighters.

At the same time, Polish officials believe that if the United States can accelerate the delivery of certain weapons provided to Poland, it will greatly help their defense capabilities. Poland is waiting for the United States to deliver the "Patriot" air defense missile system, the "Haimas" rocket launcher, the F-16 fighter and the "Abrams" main battle tank. (Edit: HHJ)
