Description EnglishIn response to Russia’s war in Ukraine, the U.S. and NATO drastically ramped up defenses across Eastern Europe. In Romania, for example, U.S. troop numbers tripled, from approximately 1,000 troops in January of last year to about 3,000 today. VOA Pentagon correspondent Carla Babb joined up with some of those soldiers for a firsthand look at how the closest U.S. troops to the war in Ukraine are holding the line with NATO allies.
