🇬🇧🇪🇪 “Our goal is not to invade Russia or put Russia under any threat, but to stop them from coming. “We want to explain to them as clearly as we can that the cost of doing that far outweighs the benefits.” In an interview with @errnews, Estonian Public Broadcasting, Brig. Jamie Murray @CommanderCabrit, commander of the UK’s Operation Cabrit in Estonia and Deputy Commander of the Estonian Division, stressed that @NATO’s goal is to deter any potential attack and that any Russian threat to Estonia would also constitute a threat to the entire Alliance. Read the full interview in the comments. 👇 Murray is confident that the Alliance can act quickly in a crisis. Close UK–Estonia ties and NATO readiness are key to deterring Russia and adapting to modern warfare. “From all of my experience — nearly 30 years in the army — we are working closer with Estonian forces than any other forces anywhere on the planet, in my view,” Murray said. British troops have been in Estonia for nine years. About 900 British soldiers are currently stationed in the country, with that number expected to rise to around 1,200 next spring. In addition, the UK’s 4th Brigade is maintained and developed at high readiness in the United Kingdom to reinforce Estonia in the event of a crisis or conflict. 🇪🇪🤝🇬🇧 A big thank you to the UK and its troops for standing with Estonia and strengthening our shared security. #WeAreNATO
