The report said the drills will involve a Bulgarian frigate, three Romanian ships and guided-missile destroyer USS Truxtun that will be docked in Bulgaria’s Varna between March 12 and 14. A similar exercise is also set to be staged in Poland, where American fighter jets are expected to fly. Polish officials said the drills were scheduled to be limited and that they asked the Pentagon to send its fighter jets only after Russias movements in Ukraine’ Crimea region. In addition, NATO announced it would deploy AWACS reconnaissance aircraft to fly over Poland and Romania to monitor the crisis in Ukraine. Russia sent hundreds of troops to Crimea after its parliament authorized President Vladimir Putin earlier this month to use armed forces “to protect Russia’s interests in the region, where half of residents speak Russian.
