NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg says the alliance is bolstering its defenses with troops and air power on its eastern flank in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
He said allies had activated defense plans and “as a result … are deploying elements of the NATO Response Force on land, at sea and in the air,” including thousands more troops and over 100 jets put on high alert in 30 locations, he said.
