NATO's Multinational Battlegroups in the East of the Alliance

- It’s been five years since NATO deployed four multinational battlegroups to its eastern flank. The battlegroups, stationed in the three Baltic States - Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania - as well as in Poland, were one of several measures announced in response to Russia’s illegal and illegitimate annexation of the Crimean peninsula in Ukraine in 2014.
As they commemorate their fifth anniversary, the battlegroups, led by Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States, remain combat-ready, demonstrate the strength of the transatlantic bond between Europe and North America, and make clear that an attack on one Ally would be considered an attack on all.
After Russia’s unprovoked and brutal invasion of Ukraine, which began on 24 February 2022, NATO announced the formation of four more battlegroups in Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia.
This video examines the role of the battlegroups, how they train and operate, and what they bring to the Alliance. Featuring interviews from battlegroup commanders, it also looks back at the deployment of the battlegroups and the cause of their placement in the east of the Alliance.

United We Stand, Divided We Fall!
NATO Forever!
Exactly this, it baffles me to hear nay-Sayers against NATO in each country. Like one politician in my country who said 'The war in ukraine is the best thing that happened and putin is the dark knight' in combination with an anti-NATO sentiment. Before the formation of NATO and the EU we had so much war for over 2000 years in our regions. And have had relative peace ever since... not only does it deter outside threats... it also binds us together in the idea that we might be slightly different culturally... we all want to live our lives in peace without wars in our lifetime. So yeah... agreed
@@Redisia yeah, as an American, I really can’t understand why anti-NATO sentiment has become so prevalent in political discourse in the last several years (and to a lesser extent, the last few decades.) It’s especially unnerving when someone who is (as of writing this comment, WAS) technically the commander-in-chief of our armed forces talk disparagingly about the alliance, and even make masked threats alluding to what would amount to undermining the alliance itself (I’m sure you can guess who I’m referring to). Thankfully, the Russian invasion of Ukraine seems to have woken a lot of naysayers up, and reinvigorated enthusiasm for NATO. We even welcomed a new member recently (Finland), and hopefully will be welcoming another one soon.

I remember cleaning houses in Afghanistan with Polish troops. I didn’t understand their language, but I fully understood the same battle tactics used. Literally no second guessing the mission objective
@@RichardWilliams3754 it's english. But you can't count on that polish know that. Not very reiaible.
@@RichardWilliams3754 They would certainly have bilingual people* attached to something like that.. and the troops are all taught phrases, but it's hard to remember that shit in the heat of the moment.
@@r.j.3440 Nowadays, almost every young and middle-aged Pole knows foreign languages, often a few of them. The Polish military personnel are no exception, and English is the most commonly known foreign language.
Professional military men from countries that hold democracy and humanity dear - very proud👍
Together against injustice!
Forever and ever

Hear hear ..from 🇨🇦
Justice or injustice, our team against theirs. Our will against theirs. That would be more proper motive to rally around, since diverse peoples and cultures can't agree on definition of justice. Usually it is just a stand in for self-interest. And if it can be agreed upon, the standards have probably been dragged down to make that possible.
We are not hypocrites, or at least I would not like to give that impression. But we have legitimate security interests in common, on which the fate of western civilization depends in practice. A civilization that cannot or doesn't want to rule its own fate probably doesn't and will be done down by more unscrupulous actors.
Long live NATO!
I love NATO- from Canada 🇨🇦
Hear hear .. also from 🇨🇦
Good Blesss you
I think Jens Stoltenberg has done a great job as NATOs General Secretary. Especially since the start of the full scale war in Ukraine. 👍
He really has. He was great as a PM in Norway too
I work with NATO members in Afghanistan soldier are so friendly all the Best from NATO allies Albanian 🇦🇱 and North Macedonia 🇲🇰 💪🎖️
🇦🇱🇲🇰🇪🇦🇪🇺💪💪 my friend
As an American and New Yorker I grew up in the shadows of the twin towers and my dad, an immigrant from Ireland, worked on the construction of those towers so I was deeply touched when NATO invoked article 5 for the first time and only time so far in its 70 year history. I am also a dual US/EU citizen and strong supporter of NATO, US and EU. Long live NATO, Slava Ukraine and welcome Finland and Sweden to the family. I support Ukraine joining NATO.
NATO - The Best defense alliance ever created , appreciate
Bless those who serve in defense of others.
Nobody of those soldier's is seeing that way. All of them fighting for theirs own country's. They finally understand that Poland always was defending Europe from the Russian and Ottomans. So if you do not let Poland lose the war will never come to your home again.
You guys are fantastic 👏 thanks to all the nations that make up NATO !!!!... Great job you all do!👌👍🇺🇲🇬🇧
the American general has the same name as the dude of GTA 5 🤣
He BADASS !! From Canada 🇨🇦

Tanti paesi diversi ma tutti fratelli
Thank you NATO for the Defense of the Eastern Flank, With your Support Ukraine will Win the War
The battlegroups are still far too small as to not even be a trip wire but that's politics. Poland may be relatively secure due to it's own large armed forces, good logistics and the US presence but the Baltic States definitely are not secure due to the excessive time needed to adequately reinforce these nations, which in itself may invite a move from the perpetual invader.
I'm by your side guys 🌎🌏🌍 NATO Forever 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠
I cant tell if the comment section is either moderated or is really that pro NATO.
oh idk lots of ppl still believe in the concept / or rather reality of the free world ,n standing together ,, and arent into conspiracy theories .. the alt right /russophiles get a lot of attn cuz theyre vocal ,and maybe in the US are a sizable perecentage , but am pretty sure that overall those of us not like that are still the majority ,across Nato
No I think it’s real, people love NATO so it doesn’t have to be moderated. Love for NATO is definitely at an all-time high because of the Ukraine conflict, so that’s great. People are finally appreciating NATO properly now
How could you possibly be against a defense alliance consisting democratic countries?
@@RuknaGeraltas Well, not everyone believes that the Western ideology is best for society.
Well NATO never declared war on anyone. U can criticize Western hypocrisy on many levels, but NATO is a defensive pact
It's too bad they're only stationing battalion-sized units.
What about brigade-sized elements? I'm sure NATO member states have enough troops to spare (okay maybe not Germany but still)

Yes this îs the futures
Democratic countries! ...protect your freedom....so fragile, so easily lost.
In anos 1940.....1952 ......los hermanos de mi abuelos a sufrido mucho por culpa de Stalin i de su politica
Stalin a tenido miedo de gente titrados de la Iglesias .......en mi pais oficial și regim ha matado por culpa de su politica 250 000 personas
Mayoria jovenes
Mucho jovenes se ha retirado in la selva i las montanias luchando por la libertad......Pero Stalin ya tenia monopolo de Mitad de la Europa
Ahora și hace falta vamos a luchar hasta ultimo hombre,que es Polaco Estonia Lituania Rumano Bulgaro Finlades .....los unicos que no dices nada son los Ungaros por culpa de Orban
Pero el pueblo Ungaros save que Orban no hace parte del futuro europeo
Putin debe que entender que ahora Ucraina puede elgir sola su futuro
Es un pais que sufre de casi 90 anos por culpa de los regimos ruso
El futuro es Europa Unida
NATO ❤️ 🇩🇪🇪🇺🫡
