Permanently stationing U.S. and other units in the Baltics remains off the table, in part due to concerns this would breach a 1997 Russia-NATO agreement.

All treaties with Russia are now meaningless.

Everything was quiet until they overthrew their government.

Those words were heard before ... the American War of Independence.

As were these words. "Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God. I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" -- Patrick Henry

FUVP and you McIvan!

>>And mighty light on tanks for the Polish plains.

That’s the problem with being Polish - you’re in a country without strong natural defensible borders, astride a major E-W invasion corridor.
