US Agrees to Military Exercises With Poland and Estonia

Over the next couple weeks, US troops will conduct military exercises in eastern Europe.

So far, they are scheduled to have the exercises with Poland and Estonia.

Both countries are NATO members who border Russia, and have expressed concerns about recent Russian military buildups and incursions into Ukraine.

Other countries may become involved in the same or other exercises, as much of NATO eyes Russia warily.

Ukraine, not a member of NATO, is dealing with separatists, which they say are being instigated by Russia.

In March, Russia took over Crimea, enforcing it's removal from Ukraine.
