Vladimir Putin’s spokesman condemned the arrival of more than 3,000 soldiers in Poland, claiming the move is a threat to Moscow"s security.
The enforcement, sanctioned by Barack Obama, comes amid growing fears the decision to send US tanks to Eastern borders to deter any Russian threat could in fact trigger an all-out global war.
Dmitry Peskov, Mr Putin’s spokesman, said the move “threatens our interests and security”.
He told the BBC: “It’s a third country that is building up its military presence on our borders in Europe. It isn’t even a European country.”
US and Polish forces will participate in large “massing” exercises in Poland at the end of the month.
NATO has recently stepped up its plans to deploy thousands more troops to the Russian border as Putin continues to increase his nation’s preparations for war.
