NATO preparing troop plans for potential Russia conflict - Telegraph --Men and weaponry may have to deployed across Western Europe, a senior general has claimed | 4 June 2024 | NATO is working on plans to rush tens of thousands of U.S. troops along "land corridors" in Western Europe in the event of war with Russia, a senior strategist has told The Telegraph. Last year, members of the U.S.-led military bloc agreed to keep 300,000 troops ready for deployment, purportedly in response to a potential Russian attack. However, training exercises have exposed red tape and infrastructure bottlenecks that prevent the rapid transfer of personnel and materiel across the continent. NATO military leadership is therefore working to ensure that the flow of troops would not be stopped by likely Russian strikes on ports used by the U.S. military to unload its cargos, The Telegraph reported on Tuesday.
