Norway will be sending a tank company to Lithuania in May to support NATO’s enhanced forward presence. The company, of around 200 troops, will be sent from Norway’s Telemark Battalion. They will provide combat support to the German-led multinational battalion. The deployment will be for six months. Commanding one of the platoons is Lieutenant Willassen. She discusses the deployment and how she’s looking forward to working with NATO Allies. At the NATO Warsaw Summit last year, plans were announced to increase troop numbers in the eastern part of the Alliance with the deployment of four battalions to Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland on a rotational basis. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Learn more about EFP: http://bit.ly/NATO_EFP ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ SUBSCRIBE to this channel http://bit.ly/NATOsubscribe SUBSCRIBE to NATO News http://bit.ly/NATONewsSubscribe SUBSCRIBE to NATO History http://bit.ly/NATOHistorySubscribe Connect with NATO online: Visit the Official NATO Homepage: http://bit.ly/NATOhomepage Find NATO on FACEBOOK: http://bit.ly/NATOfacebook Follow @NATO on TWITTER: http://bit.ly/NATOtwitter Find NATO on Google+: http://bit.ly/NATOgoogleplus Find NATO on LinkedIn: http://bit.ly/NATOlinkedin Find NATO on Flickr: http://bit.ly/NATOflickr Tue, 09 Jun 2026 07:57:51 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://tube.home.franssen.xyz https://tube.home.franssen.xyz/client/assets/images/icons/icon-1500x1500.png https://tube.home.franssen.xyz/videos/watch/9fffde0d-d6b2-404c-bc38-d9b3a4b1eefb All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://tube.home.franssen.xyz/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
