Russian-Ukrainian conflict: While the training program is planned long before Moscow’s invasion to Ukraine, has now increased significance due to war. About 30,000 troops, 200 aircraft and 50 ships from 27 countries will participate in training, the largest NATO forces involving this year.
Organizational forces of the North Atlantic Agreement (NATO) and their partners will begin training training on Monday in Norway. Aiming to come to save one of them himself, NATO training will be held several hundred kilometers away from the Russian border which has expanded his attack in Ukraine and is currently approaching his capital Kyiv.
On Friday, US President Joe Biden said he would defend NATO to the point of World War III, but he would not risk touching a broader conflict by fighting Russia in Ukraine and putting aside to build zones without flies.
While the NATO training program was planned long before Moscow’s invasion to Ukraine which is now the third week which leads to large bloodshed and destruction, has now increased significance due to war.
“This exercise is very important for Norwegian security and its allies. We will practice the strengthening of Norwegian allies”, the strange Norwegian Defense Minister Roger Enoxen told the AFP news agency.
About 30,000 troops, 200 aircraft and 50 ships from 27 countries will take part in the cold exercise of 2022, the biggest exercise involving NATO’s troops this year.
Guardian from the northern border of NATO in Europe, Norway wants to test how it will manage the Allied Help in the land, in line with Article 5 of the NATO Charter, which requires member countries to come to other member state assistance.
Sweden and Finland are closely, who are officially non-in-aligned military but the closer NATO partners will also participate in cold responses, which will conclude on April 1.
Meanwhile, Russia has rejected the invitation to send observers at practice. “Every accumulation of NATO’s military ability near the Russian border does not help strengthen security in the region,” said the Russian Embassy in Norway.
Last week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he no longer suppressed NATO membership for his country, a complicated problem which was one reason Russia stated to attack his pro-West neighbor.
