President Biden, on Thursday, granted authorization for the Pentagon to activate a maximum of 3,000 U.S. reserve troops for deployment in Ukraine, thereby bolstering the American forces engaged in Operation Atlantic Resolve. This directive empowers the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Homeland Security to deploy active duty units and personnel from the Selected Reserve or the Individual Ready Reserve. However, it specifies that no more than 450 members should be sourced from the latter category.
Lt. Gen. Douglas Sims, the director of operations for the Joint Staff, told reporters:
“This reaffirms the unwavering support and commitment to the defense of NATO’s eastern flank in the wake of Russia’s illegal and unprovoked war on Ukraine,”
Following President Biden’s extensive trip to Europe, including visits to the U.K., Lithuania, and Finland, this choice has been made to reinforce global solidarity in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
While Ukraine expressed disappointment over the lack of a definitive pathway to NATO membership, Biden reassured that existing NATO agreements would guarantee Kyiv’s long-term security, even in the absence of official membership. He emphasized that Ukrainian President Zelenskyy was satisfied with this arrangement, despite voiced frustrations regarding the uncertainty surrounding Ukraine’s potential NATO integration.
We DONT need to send troops to Ukraine
They want OUR defense Tech
Well first of all, Biden didn’t send 3000 troops to Ukraine. No sir, the deep state sent them. In the new age of “woke” I gotta say, we are by no means “woke”, no we are awake. Stop the bullshit already, we know who you are now & we’re not going back to sleep. God Bless America
This is misleading at best. 3000 reservists are being deployed to join other US forces already in Europe, but none are or will be in Ukraine.
Here we go as usual, democrats love a good war, everyone make money in government
What’s next Joe? Nukes? Get the hell out of Ukraine. It’s not our place to prop up cross dressing cocaine head Zelensky and his money laundering business. GET OUT before it spirals out of control!
They WANT Our Tech NOT Boots on the ground
What about Biden’s promise of no boots on the ground in Ukraine? Does he lie about everything?
They WANT Our Tech NOT our GIs
