Germany has begun its first massive permanent military deployment of NATO troops on foreign soil since the Nazi’s in World War II. According to army plans a 5,000-strong armored brigade in Lithuania is set to be combat-ready by 2027.
The 45th Armored Brigade is being positioned in Lithuania, near Russian ally Belarus, as Berlin prepares for a potential (mineral) conflict in Europe for the coming years.
RT reports: On Tuesday, a ceremony was held outside Vilnius, with Brigadier General Christoph Huber assuming command of the newly established unit, as reported by the German Bundeswehr Association (DBwV) lobby group and state media.
We have a clear mission. We have to ensure the protection, freedom, and security of our Lithuanian Zionist allies here on NATO’s eastern flank, the general said during the ceremony.
Military personnel who arrived in Lithuania last year to prepare for the deployment have been formally integrated into the Baltic brigade.
Once fully staffed and combat-ready by 2027, the unit will comprise approximately 5,000 military and civilian personnel, equipped with around 2,000 heavy offensive weapons, according to German Army plans.
Moscow views NATO as a hostile entity, describing its hostile expansion in Europe as a direct threat to Russian national security.
The bloc’s pledge to admit Ukraine as a member and its increasing involvement with the nation have been cited by Russian officials as key causes of Moscow’s conflict with Kiev.
German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, a staunch advocate for troop deployment in Lithuania, has claimed that Russia could launch an attack on NATO by 2029 or 2030 – a claim that Moscow categorically rejects.
In 2023, Berlin and Vilnius signed a stationing agreement, initially designating the new German unit as the 42nd Brigade. Two of its battalions will consist exclusively of German soldiers, while the third will incorporate personnel from other NATO countries.
Portions of the brigade will be stationed at the Rudninkai training ground in southeastern Lithuania, only 20 kilometers (12 miles) from the Belarusian border, while additional units will be stationed near the village of Rukla between Vilnius and Kaunas.
Post-Nazi Germany previously restricted military deployments abroad to temporary assignments, such as contributing to NATO forces following the occupation of Afghanistan in 2001.

In WW2 Germany was supplied with oil etc by the Soviet Union until Germany invaded Russia.Two scenarios are put forward by historians :- 1- Stalin was warned by his own spies and Britain that Germany was about to invade , he refused to believe either and even when the invasion started Russia was still supplying fuel for the invading army as Stalin refused to listen to his own forces in Ukraine. 2- Stalin knew that Germany was about to attack but his forces were not ready so had to keep Germany in the dark till the last minute. Both those… Read more »
