The NATO command decided to expand the military presence near Russia's borders a few years ago, but not now, as stated, allegedly due to the beginning of the military operation of the Russian army in Ukraine. This was stated by the Chairman of the NATO military Committee Admiral Rob Bauer.

Lieutenant-Admiral of the Royal Navy of the Netherlands spoke at a press conference in Tallinn on the results of the meeting of chiefs of General staff of the NATO countries. During his speech, Bauer admitted that the expansion of the military presence on Russia's borders was discussed a few years ago, and it has nothing to do with the Russian special operation in Ukraine. The start of the war only made the command of the Alliance to hurry up and more to build strength on the territory of the countries of Eastern Europe.

We discussed the most extensive reform of our military structures since 1949. Planning began several years ago, now we are doing this

he said.

The expansion of the military presence on the "Eastern" flank of NATO served as a "protection" of the countries of Eastern Europe from a possible "Russian aggression". As recently stated by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, the Alliance of Russia sent "a clear signal" that NATO will defend "every inch of the territory of the allies in case of a Russian attack". According to him, the Alliance is purely peaceful organization and poses no threat to Russia. The Kremlin held a different view, all actions aimed at NATO confrontation with Russia, and further expansion to preserve the security of Europe is not conducive.
