The White House has approved a plan from the Pentagon to utilize almost 2,000 U.S. troops in Poland to aid in the evacuation of Americans from Ukraine, should Russia decide to invade, The Wall Street Journal reported.
The plan consists of 1,700 troops from the 82nd Airborne Division deploying to Poland and setting up checkpoints, tent camps and other temporary facilities along the Ukrainian border, U.S. officials told the WSJ. The troops reportedly would not be authorized to enter Ukraine and would not evacuate Americans or launch aircraft missions from inside the country.
