While United States officials have been less than transparent regarding military action against Russia, NATO has not been so quiet.
NATO has recently sent fighters and warships to the region in anticipation of a possible move by Russia against Ukraine.
Additionally, several NATO countries have ordered staff to evacuate from their embassies in Ukraine.

For months, Russia has been amassing troops along the Ukraine border.
Initially, it was believed to be a posturing move as a threat against Ukraine possibly joining NATO.
In recent days, however, it has been revealed that there may be a plot to install pro-Kremlin leadership.
In response, NATO has sent forces to the region.
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg “NATO will continue to take all necessary measures to protect and defend all Allies, including by reinforcing the eastern part of the Alliance.
“We will always respond to any deterioration of our security environment, including through strengthening our collective defence.”
Allies are sending more ships & jets to enhance #NATO defensive deployments in eastern Europe. A strong sign of allied solidarity.
Offers include:
🇩🇰 F-16 jets to Lithuania
🇫🇷 troops to Romania
🇳🇱 F-35 jets to Bulgaria
🇪🇸 frigate heading to the Black Seahttps://t.co/2GnJKupEA9 pic.twitter.com/UvsRXpkvLT— NATO Spokesperson Farah Dakhlallah (@NATOpress) January 24, 2022
Sadly, Joe Biden has not been as transparent regarding this situation.
This is how Biden ended his last briefing…
Don’t worry, Joe… we are only on the brink of war with one of the strongest military units in the world… we don’t need answers.
