After announcing economic sanctions on Russia, Joe Biden confirmed that the United States will move troops that are currently serving in Europe to the Baltic states (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania).
A senior Pentagon official confirmed to AFP that, in addition to 800 soldiers, 20 AH-64 “Apache” attack helicopters will be mobilized.
In addition, eight state-of-the-art F-35 fighter jets will be dispatched from Germany to “various” locations on “NATO’s eastern flank,” and another 12 Apaches, normally located in Greece, will be stationed in Poland, the official added. .
