US troops arrive in Poland, Latvia for ‘drills’

“The first two waves of US troops have arrived in Poland and Latvia to begin military drills ‘promoting peace and stability’ across Eastern Europe. Tensions continue to mount in the region, as Ukraine teeters on the brink of a civil war.  A contingent of 150 American soldiers arrived in the Polish town of Swidwin on Thursday. Later in the evening another 150 US troops arrived in Riga, Latvian defence ministry confirmed. The two groups will be shortly joined by another 300 troops.  The soldiers will participate in military exercises in Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia over the next three months, with a view to reassuring NATO allies in the region.”
