U.S. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin is in Brussels for a meeting of NATO defense ministers. NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg says the 30-nation military alliance is set to radically change its security posture in Europe in the future, and that Austin will lead discussions of the possible changes on Wednesday. In recent years, NATO has deployed a relatively small force of around 5,000 troops to the Baltic countries – Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania – and Poland on a rotating basis.
