Dutch Genie Constructs Polish 'Iron Curtain': 'Serious Defense Reduces Russia's Will to Fight'

rukla - Construction of the multi-billion dollar new Iron Curtain has begun in Poland. The fortress will include layers of defenses such as steel walls, razor wire, tank ditches, and minefields to secure NATO's eastern flank.

Construction has started on the new Iron Curtain, dubbed 'East Shield', in Poland and the Baltic States. The fortress will feature layers of defenses including steel walls, razor wire, tank ditches, and minefields, all monitored by sensors, drones, and satellites.

The 650-kilometer-long fortress is aimed at strengthening NATO's eastern flank against potential threats from Russia. Dutch military personnel stationed in Lithuania are part of the NATO forces in the region, with hundreds of concrete anti-tank obstacles ready for deployment.

The fortification project, costing billions of euros, is seen as a necessary measure to enhance European security in the face of Russian aggression. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk emphasized the need to secure Poland's eastern borders, warning potential aggressors to stay away.

Experts suggest that a strong defense system can deter Russian aggression and prevent potential conflicts. The importance of constant monitoring and fast response to breaches in the defense line is highlighted to ensure its effectiveness.
