Die Nato zeigt sich weiterhin sehr besorgt über den russischen Truppenaufmarsch an der ukrainischen Ostgrenze und erwägt den Bereitschaftsgrad der NRF zu erhöhen.
Wir haben da insofern Glück gehabt das wird für 2014 keine geschlossenen Heeresverbände der NRF überschrieben haben. Das wäre peinlich geworden...

Russia has massed all the forces it needs on Ukraine's border if it were to decide to carry out an "incursion" into the country, and it could achieve its objective in three to five days, NATO's top military commander said on Wednesday
[...]
Breedlove said the initial U.S. moves with "aircraft in the north, aircraft in the centre and a ship in the south" could serve as a model for what NATO would do next, except other NATO allies would also be involved in future reinforcements.
He would not say how long the reinforcements would stay in central and eastern Europe but said it would not be short-term, although deployments would be periodically reviewed.
NATO may bring forward some military exercises or expand others, he said.
NATO is also looking at the readiness of its rapid reaction force, the NATO Response Force, which includes land, air, sea and special operations forces, and could consider shortening the time it takes for the force to respond, he said.
