The United States will consolidate its presence in Europe in response to the new threats created by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. US President Joe Biden announced the USA will boost its military presence in Spain, Poland, Romania, the Baltic States, the United Kingdom, Germany and Italy. On the sidelines of the NATO summit in Madrid, the White House leader confirmed that the number of US destroyers deployed to Spain will be increased from four at present to six, while an additional two squadrons of state-of-the-art F35 fighter jets will be sent to the United Kingdom. The US will permanently station the U.S. Army V Corps forward command in Poland and will supplement its forces in Romania by an additional 5,000 military. President Iohannis said the move will benefit Romania and the security of the entire region.
