Moscow's top diplomat has warned his government would take responsive measures to an upcoming, massive U.S. military deployment and U.S.-led exercises across multiple European states bordering Russia.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told official government newspaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta in an interview Monday that "naturally, we will react" to the NATO Western military alliance's Defender-Europe 20 exercise, which is due next month to begin facilitating the largest U.S. military deployment to Europe in 25 years. The majority of the drills are set to take place in May and June, involving some 36,000 personnel—including 25,000 from the U.S.—across Germany, Poland and the Baltic states of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

Reply message to the Russian High Command from current and former members of the US Armed Forces ....
MESSAGE BEGINS ... Fine, react. ... MESSAGE ENDS
I recall the last time Russian forces "i.e. contractors" attacked US forces during our castration of ISIS. After 4 hours of heavy combat with 40 US Service Members supported by elements of the USAF (in what could have become contested airspace at any point) approximately 50% of the Russian force were KIA or "hors de combat".
Yeah the quality of today's Russian fighting man is a terrifying thing to behold, NOT.

A little cat and mouse with the Russians will allow both sides to test a few of their gizmos.
