Military maneuvers in Poland, a country bordering Ukraine, would be a “very clear” signal for Russian President Vladimir Putin as well as his NATO allies.
German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said on the evening of February 26 that Washington is in talks with Berlin and Warsaw to hold joint military exercises in Poland in response to the threat from Russia on NATO’s eastern border.
“For Eastern European countries such as Poland, the Baltic states, Slovakia and others, it is important to see Germany as the most important European member of the alliance and the United States as a transatlantic partner fulfill their defense obligations,” he said.
He also added that before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the alliance was “much stronger and more cohesive than last year”.
At the same time, Pistorius is confident that NATO should not be a party to the conflict in Ukraine and continues to provide assistance.
Meanwhile, Poland plans to train Ukrainian pilots on F-16 fighter jets.
Recall, on February 17, Polish President Andrzej Duda said that Warsaw will consider transferring MiG-29 fighter jets serving in the Polish army to Ukraine and is ready to join the coalition to supply Ukraine with F-16 aircraft. . And the first German Leopard 2 tanks have already been delivered to Ukraine.
