According to news report, Britain is deploying hundreds of
troops, drones and tanks to the borders of Russia, in reparation of a possible
attack, should Russia decides to test its new nuclear weapon nicked-named satan
2.
The troops are to station at the Estonia
border with Russia, alongside thousands of NATO troops already deployed to
other surrounding borders with Russia.
The news suggest that NATO is pressing hard
on its allies, including the US and Britain to contribute to the military
presence as the alliance prepares for a long quarrel with Moscow.
Alliance defence ministers aim to make
good on a July promise by NATO leaders to send forces to the Baltic states and
eastern Poland from early next year.
The United States also is preparing
about 4,000 troops from Europe to join the alliance forces in the Eastern
Europe borders with Russia, and this is also a part of NATO's response to Russia's 2014
annexation of Crimea and concern it could try a similar tactic in Europe's
ex-Soviet states.
France, Denmark, Italy and other allies
are expected to join the four battle groups led by the United States, Germany,
Britain and Canada to go to Poland, Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia, with forces
ranging from armoured infantry to drones.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg
was quoted to have said: "a clear demonstration of our transatlantic
bond."
Stoltenberg on the other hand, denied
going too far, saying:
"This is a credible deterrence, not
to provoke a conflict but to prevent conflict."
"This deployment, if it becomes
permanent, if the presence of nuclear weapons were confirmed, would be a change
in (Russia's) security posture,"
