This is an excellent 32 minute history lesson on the conflict between the Baltic Countries, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia vs Russia. It's the best summary that I have found.

After those beta weenies couldn’t even allow a moment of prayer at a EU parliament meeting, I have ZFG.
The only country worth a damn is Poland.
I’m rooting for most of them to go tits up after their embrace of muslims and communism.
US about of NATO.
Let those elbows up Canadians save their butts.

We already have Americans in the Baltic states. Not a large force, but they’re there.

Thank you for bringing that information to my attention.

I have noticed that some of his information is biased and I turned it off.

This particular video appeared to be very well done, especially in presenting historical context.

Approximately 10,000 U.S. personnel are currently on rotational deployment in Poland as part of the NATO enhanced Forward Presence (eFP) and the European Deterrence Initiative, including an Armored Brigade Combat Team.

The U.S. also maintains a permanent military presence, with facilities like U.S. Army Garrison Poland, which oversees key garrison sites and supports rotational units. In addition to troop rotations, the U.S. has built a significant infrastructure, including a NATO Aegis Ashore ballistic missile defense facility, to bolster security on the alliance’s eastern flank.

Twenty years ago, Putin stated that all of the European Countries that once were under the Soviet Union boot should be “returned” to Russia.

In a 2005 speech, Russian President Vladimir Putin famously called the collapse of the Soviet Union the "greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century".

A "genuine tragedy": He described the event as a "genuine tragedy" for the Russian people, stating that millions of citizens and countrymen were left outside Russian territory.

Medvedev in 2008 said, it was as natural for Russia to regard the former Soviet republics as a key strategic zone of its interests.

In December 2021, Russia publicly issued a list of demands for legally binding "security guarantees" from NATO and the United States, which included a requirement for NATO to withdrawal NATO forces and weapons from any member states that joined after May 1997. This would include Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, and other countries in Eastern Europe.

U.S. troops are present in the Baltic states as part of NATO’s enhanced Forward Presence (eFP) initiative, where the United States leads a multinational battalion-sized battlegroup in Lithuania. This presence, along with other allied troops, is a key part of NATO’s Operation Atlantic Resolve efforts to bolster deterrence and readiness on the Alliance’s eastern flank, particularly following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Where Are U.S. Forces Deployed in Europe?

Following Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, some twenty thousand additional U.S. soldiers were deployed to states neighboring Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine to support Ukraine and contain the conflict. Over the course of the war, the total number of troops has ranged between approximately 75,000 and 105,000 military personnel, primarily from the Air Force, Army, and Navy.

New Bloomberg data showing Russia's total territorial gains since January 2024 amount to 1.05% of Ukraine.

In this time, Russia lost over 700,000 troops.

Thanks, but the threat to America will be from across the Pacific.

The biggest threat to America is domestic.

“Twenty years ago,”

Snicker. Yeah, twenty years ago. Hasn’t made much progress has he? Anyway, what do you think we should do about it?

“Germany has troops in Lithuania, British in Estonia, and the Canadians in Latvia. All preparing defenses for war.”

This is ridiculous. The armed forces of all these countries you name are laughably pathetic now. This isn’t the 1980s anymore. Again, the USA is going to be stuck with this. They’ll all cut and run when SHTF and leave us to clean up the mess.
