Washington. Estados Unidos anunció este miércoles el envío de 3.000 soldados adicionales a Europa del Este para defender de “toda a agresión” a los países de la Organización del Tratado del Atlántico Norte (OTAN); una decisión que Rusia, sospechada de planear invadir Ucrania, considera “destructiva”.

Las tropas se suman a los 8.500 militares puestos en alerta desde finales de enero por Washington para ser desplegados como parte de la Fuerza de Respuesta Rápida de la OTAN en caso de ser necesario. “Estos movimientos son un mensaje inequívoco que enviamos al mundo de que estamos listos para tranquilizar a nuestros aliados de la OTAN y decididos a defenderlos contra cualquier agresión”, aseguró a la prensa el vocero del Departamento de Defensa de Estados Unidos, John Kirby.
