European Pravda – Sept 11, 2023
NATO is preparing for a joint command and staff exercise in 2024, its largest one since the end of the Cold War, involving over 40,000 troops.
The exercise seeks to practise the Alliance’s response to Russian aggression against one of its members.
The Steadfast Defender exercise is reportedly part of NATO’s operational transition from crisis response to combat operations, in the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
The manoeuvres are expected to begin next spring and will involve 500 to 700 aircraft, over 50 ships and around 41,000 troops. They will take place in Germany, Poland and the Baltic States.
The Russian-led coalition is referred to as Occasus for the purposes of the exercise.
Sweden, whose application for NATO membership has not yet been ratified by Türkiye and Hungary, will also participate in the exercise.
The manoeuvres are part of a new training strategy that will see NATO conduct two major exercises yearly instead of one. The Alliance will also train to counter terrorist threats beyond its immediate borders.
NATO officials say the exercise is also seen as a critical part of sending a message to Moscow that the Alliance is ready to fight.
Background: It was reported earlier that NATO Allies were launching a major maritime exercise, North Coast, off the coasts of Latvia and Estonia.
Christian Kaack, German Navy Commander-in-Chief, stated that these military exercises would be the first time they would practise responding to a potential Russian attack.

They look like nerds, and “troops” is the wrong word all along; a “troop” is a group of soldiers, minimum three
If Russia wanted to, they could surprise attack this wargame and wipe everyone out.
People in the western military need to get their thinking straight very quickly. The smart ones will have resigned a while back.
Those still in this hunt, are about to get their arses handed to them on a plate. Remember India’s Russian jets beat the UK’s 12-0 (12-1?) in practice. The Indians don’t even get the full specification Russian jets.
Ouch. The Common Purpose-led Army will be over in 48 hours too. Sure a few brave pockets will fight on, until they get torn apart by rockets flamethrowers and artillery.
Unlike us, Russia doesn’t f*ck around.
Will they ‘accidentally’ stray across the border? Will they actually return to base afterwards, or remain poised along the border?
NATO Yids & Commies can’t wait to setup & waste more Whites, –just like their Yid/Commie comrades or counterparts in the East– Zelensky & Putin. Now you know.
I agree with Nico on this. And tiny Ursula von der Leyen has been trying to force Britain into an EU Army for years, while desperately angling to be appointed as Secretary General of NATO.
NATO fcktards U$$A & ZOGUK well on the way to fulfilling that Deagel forecast of them both being obliterated by 2025..
not that 1 in 10,000 DUMB Yanks or THICK Brits would have even the SLIGHTEST idea of what I’m referring to! 😂😂🤣
