'Will Escalate Tensions': Russia's Chilling Warning As German Troops Land In NATO Nation Lithuania

Russia has warned that the deployment of German troops in NATO Nation Lithuania will escalate tensions in the region. Around a dozen of German soldiers arrived in Vilnius as part of the first phase of their deployment in the NATO nation and 150 more will join them later this year. The deployment is expected to be up to its full strength of 5,000 by the end of 2027. This is Germany's first long-term foreign deployment since World War II.
