According to RIA Novosti on December 7, US President Joe Biden reported to Congress that 80,000 US troops were sent to European countries, with the aim of preventing Russian attacks.

“Approximately 80,000 members of the US Armed Forces are sent or deployed to NATO countries in Europe,” the US President said in a letter to the leaders of both houses of the US Congress.

According to President Biden, the US military is there to “reassure allies” and “deter further Russian aggression.”

In addition, on December 5, US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan made an important commitment from the Biden administration to Ukraine. Accordingly, Washington will provide hundreds of thousands of artillery shells, thousands of missiles and hundreds of armored vehicles to Ukraine by the middle of next month.

Washington also plans to train Ukrainian troops abroad and finalize a $20 billion loan secured by frozen Russian assets.

In February 2024, in an interview with American journalist Tucker Carlson, Russian President Vladimir Putin explained that Moscow would not attack NATO countries, because “it would be pointless”.

The Russian leader noted that Western politicians regularly threaten their people with an “imaginary threat from Russia” in order to divert attention from internal problems.
