President Joe Biden is now reportedly considering whether or not to send significant amounts of American troops to the NATO allies in eastern europe, including several that have borders with Russia, as tensions in the region soar.

As DNYUZ reports:

WASHINGTON — President Biden is considering deploying several thousand U.S. troops, as well as warships and aircraft, to NATO allies in the Baltics and Eastern Europe, an expansion of American military involvement amid mounting fears of a Russian incursion into Ukraine, according to administration officials.

The move would signal a major pivot for the Biden administration, which up until recently was taking a restrained stance on Ukraine, out of fear of provoking Russia into invading. But as President Vladimir V. Putin has ramped up his threatening actions toward Ukraine, and talks between American and Russian officials have failed to discourage him, the administration is now moving away from its do-not-provoke strategy.

In a meeting on Saturday at Camp David, the presidential retreat in Maryland, senior Pentagon officials presented Mr. Biden with several options that would shift American military assets much closer to Mr. Putin’s doorstep, the administration officials said. The options include sending 1,000 to 5,000 troops to Eastern European countries, with the potential to increase that number tenfold if things deteriorate.

The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk publicly about internal deliberations.

Biden is set to make a decision on the matter as early as this week. Many conservatives were extremely unhappy with Biden’s new aggressive posture on Ukraine, sighting the significant risk of a full scale war with a nuclear power over a nation which is not aligned with the US:

  1. can this demented fool even find the russian border on a globe, dementia jo doesn’t have any interest in protecting our border!

  2. I am a retired officer, and strongly pro-defense, but I think we should disband NATO and have only bilateral military alliances. What do these E. European countries mean to us? Frankly, if Russia took Romania, does Russia become a bigger strategic threat to us? It would be a bummer for the Romanians, but too bad.

  3. biden is a Coward biden and harris need to be removed from office and send to Prison for Treason and Sedition against the American People and the Constitution

      1. Biden isn’t as stupid as WE would like to think. If he can get the 3rd world war started, he can stay in office until WE die

  4. Pedo Joe being a typical WILLFULLY IGNORANT LIBERAL won’t want to start a war or even the suggestion of starting a War especially this close to an Election. Democraps HATE the Military and using them for doing something Right and should NEVER have been allowed to happen. But since Democraps CHEATED that Senile Baffin into office they are now having to pay for his having sold himself to everyone in the World that HATES America via his druggy son Hunter. Having troops in harms way after the DISASTER that is the first year of Pedo Joe RUINING America will kill any hope Democraps have if winning any election. So I doubt those who actually make Pedi Joe’s decisions for him will let him get into a War with anyone in any way.

  5. Russia has hinted that they will position nuclear missiles off the coast of America if we don’t mind our own business. This would give Americans a maximum five minute warning should one of these missiles launch. Putin said America will suffer if they are involved. Pedo Joe has 8500 American troops standing by so I don’t think he is going to mind his own business which is our own business.
