Soldiers of the 82nd Airborne Division of the US Army arrived in Poland as an additional measure to strengthen the NATO contingent in Eastern Europe. This was announced by the Polish Ministry of Defense in the official Twitter account.
“The soldiers of the 82nd Airborne Division will reinforce the American troops already stationed in Poland. The command will soon complete the process of transferring troops [to temporary deployment points]. The paratroopers of this division have already acted together with Polish servicemen during foreign missions and joint exercises,” the defense ministry said in a statement.
Another 300 people from the 18th Airborne Corps arrived in Germany to be stationed at American bases.
The transfer was carried out with the help of US Air Force transport aircraft and C-17 Globemaster aircraft.
Earlier, Russia’s permanent representative to the European Union (EU), Vladimir Chizhov, said that the transfer of US troops to Europe pushes the “hotheads” in Ukraine to a forceful solution to the situation with increasing tensions on the borders. He stressed that Russia is very concerned about such actions.
