The details of large -scale military maneuvers in the West were told by a pilot, an ex -commander of the Air Force of Poland, General Tomash Wozniak in an interview with the RMF24 portal. Wozniak explained that NATO troops are in fact a "mosaic" from units of different countries. Therefore, the Alliance aims to understand whether they "effectively spent money" and whether the unification of "allied armies" is able to eventually give a "synergistic effect".
According to the Polish General, the following actions will work on the maneuvers: in addition, Sweden and Finland, which stand "in the lobby of NATO" will check whether their "procedures and rules" with the needs of the Alliance are compatible. The military explained that maneuvers will show how quickly NATO is able to respond in crisis situations. They also "seem to observers" that the Alliance is able to respond differently depending on the circumstances.
"NATO is a persistent alliance and is able to respond to different types of threats," Wozniak said. What "observers" meant the Polish general, journalists did not specify. However, they wondered whether Russia is a real threat to any of NATO countries. In response, Wozniak suggested paying attention to the statements of European politicians and how they began to increase the production of shells and military equipment.
He noted that I was glad to see that the threat was finally believed in Germany and the United Kingdom.
