The Pentagon says it continues to consult with NATO allies about their “military needs and desires,” and it’s not ruling out additional U.S. troop overseas deployments in response to heightened tensions over Russia’s military presence on the Ukrainian border.
“The other thing I'd say is I’m not going to rule out the possibility that there will be more such direction given to additional units at home or even abroad in terms of their readiness posture,” said Pentagon Spokesman John Kirby.
