lmfao you really linked NATO's official website as proof :rofl:
Again you can easily google simple facts. This notion that the military build up happened in central and eastern Ukraine only after 2014 is nonsense. For example quick google search on a single country.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deveselu_Military_BaseYou right, you using Wikipedia is totally a more reliable source than the most successful military alliance, probably ever.
"The base was disbanded in 2003 and approximately 200 personnel were retired.[7]2010–present
THAAD systems deployed at the base
In February 2010, the Supreme Council of National Defence decided for Romania to participate in the development of the American anti-missile defense component, at the invitation of President Barack Obama. A year later, in September 2011, the former aviation base was selected to host SM-3 interceptor missiles.[4][5] Construction started in October 2013, with a ceremony attended by President Traian Băsescu and Under Secretary of Defense for Policy James N. Miller.[5]
On 1 May 2012, Baza Militară 99 was established.[4] The inauguration ceremony was held in December 2015. The Aegis Ashore Site became operational in May 2016.[8] According to major general Charles Miller, "Aegis Ashore Romania is designed to protect European NATO Allies and U.S. deployed forces in the region against the growing threat posed by the proliferation of ballistic missiles outside the Euro-Atlantic area."[9] The defense system is under the operational control of United States Naval Forces Europe-Africa, based in Naples, Italy. The current commander of Aegis Ashore Romania is Cmdr. Jonathan P. Schermerhorn, who replaced Cmd. Frederick G. Hettling in October 2022.[10][11]"
Even after 2010. 250 US troops at that base. in Romania.
That is the krux of justifying Russia's invasion? Pardon me if that appears just a wee bit threadbare
