Germany confirms plans to carry out joint exercises with the US and Poland on Polish territory

MADRID, 27 Feb. (EUROPA PRESS) -

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius has confirmed plans to hold joint military exercises by US, German and Polish soldiers in Poland, which will send a very "clear" signal to Russian President Vladimir Putin about the strength of NATO.

"This NATO is by no means as weak as I thought," the German minister said late Sunday night in a television program broadcast by the ARD radio station and picked up on Monday by Deutsche Welle.

In this sense, he has indicated that it is "important" that the countries of Eastern Europe and the Baltic States see that both Germany and the United States maintain their commitment to defend the Alliance in the context of the war in Ukraine.

The Polish authorities reported last Monday that the border with Belarus, Russia's main ally, will remain closed indefinitely to goods traffic in response to a similar measure adopted by the Belarusian government.
