NATO largest military build up since Cold War along Russian borders

LONDON: West is planning the largest military build up since cold war on the Russian borders.

Britain said on Wednesday it will send fighter jets to Romania next year and the United States promised troops, tanks and artillery to Poland in NATO's biggest military build-up on Russia's borders since the Cold War.

Germany, Canada and other NATO allies also pledged forces at a defense ministers meeting in Brussels on the same day two Russian warships armed with cruise missiles entered the Baltic Sea between Sweden and Denmark, underscoring East-West tensions.

The fears of another cold war between Russia and West are looming over the skies, analysts report.
