22 августа 2022
U.S. large-capacity military vessels have arrived at the ports of the Baltic States. A multi-purpose U.S. amphibious assault ship, capable of carrying attack helicopters and two thousand infantrymen on board, has anchored in Klaipeda. The occasion is an exercise by the air force of the Baltic States plus the Czech Republic. The maneuvers begin today and will last until Friday and will unfold in the air over Lithuanian territorial waters. In addition, the first German military battalion will arrive in Lithuania in September. It will be permanently deployed there. NATO's eastern flank is hurriedly strengthening and conducting "combat harmonization": never before has such a large military force been concentrated in the region.
