Washington reportedly plans to send 3,000 additional troops
Washington needs war at any price, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said, responding to news of an alleged plan by the US to send thousands of extra troops to Poland.
It was revealed on Friday that the Pentagon is sending an additional 3,000 troops to Eastern Europe amid the Ukraine-related crisis. According to an official who spoke to reporters ahead of the official announcement, the troops will join the 1,700 soldiers who are already in Poland early next week.
“The hysteria of the White House is more revealing than ever. The Anglo-Saxons need a war. At any price,” Zakharova said.
She added that “provocations, disinformation and threats” serve as a preferred way for the US and its allies to solve their own problems.
“A roller of the American military-political machine is ready to go through people’s lives again. The whole world is watching how militarism and imperial ambitions expose themselves,” Zakharova said.
The last few months have seen Western countries accuse Russia of its alleged plan to attack Ukraine. Despite multiple denials of these claims by Moscow, US and its NATO allies keep building up their military presence in Eastern Europe.
A Pentagon official, however, emphasized that the troops who will soon be on their way to Poland are being sent there only to defend NATO allies and are not supposed to cross the Ukrainian border.
