Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Alexander Grushko said that the transfer of US forces to Europe only increases military tension, Interfax quotes.
He stressed that the destructive steps of the United States, which are not justified by anyone, also narrow the field for political decisions.
Meanwhile, these steps of the American side are “only a joy” for the Kiev authorities, because in this way “it is possible to continue to sabotage the Minsk agreements with impunity,” the diplomat noted.
On January 29, US President Joe Biden announced that US troops would soon be deployed to Eastern Europe and NATO countries.
As Pentagon spokesman John Kirby later reported, the Pentagon has not yet had any announcements regarding the transfer of American troops to Europe due to the situation around Ukraine, but the United States "is in close consultation" with a number of countries. He promised that if the decision to transfer US military personnel is eventually made, the Pentagon will be "as transparent as possible."
