Media: US plans to deploy long-range missiles in EU send signal to Russia
Western news agency Berliner Zeitung reported that the US intends to deploy long-range missiles in the EU to send a signal to Russia.
According to the publication, NATO feels lagging behind in the area of nuclear weapons.
The Berliner Zeitung writes, citing Severin Pleyer, a research fellow at the Helmut Schmidt University in Hamburg: “The alliance is trying to demonstrate its strength to Moscow.”
According to Player, such actions are carried out by the bloc for the purpose of intimidation.
Interpretation of unusual actions
The expert also noted that the long-range missiles in question were used in Europe during last year's exercises.
In addition, the military analyst noted that NATO's deployment of such actions does not surprise him given the alliance's lagging behind in the area of nuclear weapons.
Earlier, the Pentagon emphasized that long-range American missiles will be deployed in Europe by 2026.
Many experts in the field of military operations have noted that the United States is independently escalating tensions in the world.
