MOSCOW — Russia would swiftly respond to any moves by the United States to build up military resources in Eastern Europe by fortifying its western border with more troops, tanks, planes and missile systems, a defense official told the Russian pressMonday.
The Pentagon is considering plans to store heavy weaponry, tanks and other vehicles in the Baltics, U.S. officials said Saturday . If that happens, Russia would view the move as “the most aggressive step since the Cold War,” Russian army Gen. Yury Yakubov told the Russian news service Interfax.
