The US and Russia this week both announced plans for separate war games, upping the ante in the standoff over the crisis in Ukraine. The Pentagon says that approximately 200 soldiers will be heading to western Ukraine later this month for “peacekeeping” exercises, while there are also separate plans for ground and air training in Poland. Not to be outdone, Russia announced on Wednesday that the forces in charge of the country’s nuclear weaponry will conduct exercises this month as well.
