Germany has positioned thousands of troops on Russia’s doorstep in the country’s first permanent foreign deployment since WW2.
Europe’s largest economy has set down a 5,000-strong armoured brigade in Lithuania in a bid to bolster Nato’s eastern flank in response to Russia’s war against Ukraine.
The historic move marks a departure from decades of German defence policy which had previously avoided the permanent stationing of combat troops abroad.
The newly-created 45th Armoured Brigade was formally activated in a ceremony on Tuesday outside Lithuanian capital Vilnius.
Everything happening in Europe proves that someone who hates Europe and Russia is in charge of everything. ABN
