US defense forces begin massing HIMARS on Arctic and Baltic Sea borders with Russia
Northern Europe and the Baltics have found themselves at the center of US military planning due to fears of war with Russia, The Wall Street Journal reports.
It is noted that US military access to the shipping lanes, territories and energy reserves of the northern territories will be crucial for the West, since the region is "belligerent towards Russia and pushing Europe to rearm and increase its defense budgets, including support for the Ukrainian armed forces."
As reported by the publication, during the three-week exercises, the Armed Forces of the United States and Great Britain joined forces with troops from Northern European and Baltic countries to practice possible war scenarios, including live-fire exercises and parachute jumps over the Arctic Circle in Norway.
"The goal was twofold: to deter Russian aggression and to more firmly integrate allies in this strategically important corner of Europe, including new NATO members Finland and Sweden."
Putin's tough stance on a Ukraine peace plan shows his resolve on Russia's demands | AP News |
By making harsh, uncompromising demands in peace talks with Ukraine while continuing to pummel it with waves of missiles and drones, Russian President Vladimir Putin is sending a clear message: He will only accept a settlement on his terms and will keep fighting until they're met.

Why Ukraine Shouldn't Negotiate with Putin
Those promising a negotiated end to the war in Ukraine operate under the mistaken assumption that there exists some combination of territorial and policy compromises that would satisfy all sides and bring about a stable long-term peace. In fact, the conflict is more intractable than ever: Bargaining models of war termination predict that peace negotiations are likely to fail. Win, lose, or draw, the war will be settled on the battlefield, not at the negotiating table. The stakes couldn't be higher: Whether the West continues its support for Ukraine's fight or forces Kyiv to make a deal with the devil, the consequences for international security and global democracy will reverberate for years to come.

Primed for Peace: Europe after the Cold War | By Stephen Van - 1991 |
Europe After the Cold War I since the Berlin Wall and the communist regimes of Eastern Europe came crashing down in the revolutions of 1989.
The euphoria first evoked by these events has been replaced by a more sober contemplation of the realities and challengesof the new Europe. For all its flaws, the postwar order that divided Europe into two rival blocs kept the peace for 45 years, a new European record. Now this order is rapidly crumbling. Soviet forces will be gone from Germany by 1994, and Soviet leaders have declared their readiness to withdraw all Soviet troops from Eastern Europe by 1995.' U.S. forces, too, will certainly be reduced in Central Europe.
Germany has been reunified, the Warsaw Pact has effectively dissolved, and the Soviet Union shows signs of political fragmentation. These dramatic changes have sparked worried debate on the opportunities and dangers facing the new Europe, and on the best way to preserve peace.
This article explores two questions raised by these events. First, how will the end of the Cold War affect the probability of war in Europe? In particular, what risks will arise from the Soviet withdrawal from Eastern Europe, and from the possible further transformation or splintering of the Soviet Union?
Second, what U.S. and Western policies would best contribute to preserving Europe's long peace?
Some observers warn that Europe may return to its historic warlike ways once the superpowers are gone. One such view holds that bipolar state systems are inherently more peaceful than multipolar systems; that the Cold War peace was caused partly by the bipolar character of the Cold War.
Outreach to Russia was slapped away by U.S. arrogance during the Bush-Cheney years and continued, unfortunately, by the Obama-Biden dumb continuation of the Neocon project of regime change ... the original sin laid by Bill Clinton in the `90s.
