Sharjah 24 – AFP: NATO allies will boost high readiness forces to "well over 300,000" troops as they strengthen their defences in response to Russia's war on Ukraine, alliance chief Jens Stoltenberg said Monday.
"We will strengthen our forward defences. We will enhance our battle groups in the eastern part of the alliance, up to brigade levels. We will transform the NATO Response Force and increase the number of our high readiness forces to well over 300,000," Stoltenberg said, ahead of a NATO summit in Madrid this week.
