    Poland has invoked Article 4 of Nato's founding treaty, under which consultations can be requested when an ally feels their security is threatened. Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski has said that while the Ukraine crisis is not a direct threat to Poland and that the country is safe, Poland wants to enlist Nato as a tool to work for stabilisation in Ukraine.

    I am not even sure what we have left in EUCOM. I know we have no Tanks.

    US Army last tanks depart from Germany

    I find it interesting that, as the Army is arguing to maintain their numbers because we can never predict the future, they are not (yet) using this as an "I told you so" moment. Perhaps because there is little they can do in less than 90 days that is sustainable.
