According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, America's large-scale military preparations under the pretext of protecting from the so-called 'Russian threat' illustrate Washington's determination to escalate tension on the European continent.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The creation of military hardware depots by the United States in Eastern Europe and the Baltics is aimed at escalating the tension on the continent, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said Monday.

"The current large-scale military preparations by the United States under a completely fabricated precursor of protecting its allies from a non-existent 'Russian threat' does not only not correspond to the interests of peace and security in Europe, it simply once again confirms Washington's goal of escalating tension and disrupting stability on the continent," Zakharova said.
