PSKOV (Sputnik) – NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said members of the alliance agreed at the July 8 Warsaw Summit to strengthen the military bloc’s presence in Eastern Europe by next year.
The four-battalion rotational presence would include US troops in Poland, British forces in Estonia, German troops in Lithuania and Canadian forces in Latvia.
"It is necessary to take measures from all points of view, primarily from the military, to parry the threats linked to deployment of extra potentials along our borders and creation of footholds which could be used in certain circumstances to project force towards Russia," Grushko told RIA Novosti.
