But then start the “but”. The problem is, where it will embark troops from Germany. As noted by trump, “some return home and some will be sent to other places, Poland will be one of them.” But that’s another story. One thing home, the other closer to our borders, and the signal is then directly opposed to the desire to “get along”.
the Minister of defence of Germany crump of Karrenbauer quite rightly pointed out yesterday that if you move troops to the East to be considered “the Founding act Russia – NATO” of 1997, in which the Alliance pledged not to station troops along the Russian border on a regular basis. “It is important that NATO and NATO partners remained United and adhered to this agreement, with the provisions which we agreed” – this is a serious signal, but not sure that it was heard in Washington.
With that, trump probably does quite frankly is not going to build up tension in the East, and considering all of these games with the troops as a “business project”. On what have responded the same crump-Karrenbauer as saying that “NATO is not a trading organization, and security – not a commodity”. For trump just the product. He, I believe, fully understands that neither in Poland, nor, especially, for America on the Eastern borders of the real and actual threat there. At least, from which it would be possible to protect tens of thousands of military.
However, he knows that in Poland phobias on the subject of “the Russian threat” enough, and therefore quite willing to ‘sell’ safety, saying in particular that the poles will pay for additional troops. Germany thereby “raise because she “has not fulfilled obligations” to Finance the NATO, and in General, they say, sought protection from Russia, and she trades with her.
All of these business games around the theme of safety would be purely a NATO problem, if it hadn’t touched us. We are not so important reasons for the actions of trump, however, worried about the possible implications. If the end result will be increased military presence on our borders, this will lead to retaliatory action, and will become worse. Washington this has nothing to lose, Poland will amuse their ambitions, but in General we can revert to the situation before 1997, when agreements between Russia and NATO was not. And it will be a defeat for all of Europe.
And another story, capable to give very unpleasant for Poland. Trump clearly stated that the us military in Germany will pay the poles. I suspect that Warsaw was a completely other payments – “and to show loyalty, and to earn money.” Apparently, bummer.
