Russia is testing the West by conducting war games on NATO’s eastern flank in its biggest military exercise in four years, U.K. Defense Secretary Michael Fallon said.
“This is designed to provoke us, it’s designed to test our defenses, and that’s why we have to be strong,” Fallon said on the BBC’s “The Andrew Marr Show” on Sunday. “Russia is testing us and testing us now at every opportunity. We’re seeing a more aggressive Russia. We have to deal with that.”
