Obama confirms its support for the allies in Eastern Europe

The concern of the countries of Eastern U.S. allies and members of NATO, has forced Obama, on a visit to Poland , to ensure full support of Washington in these nations. The region of Eastern Europe is forcibly returned to the center of U.S. interests , who believed that area well-established in the U.S. geopolitical design . The awakening of the Russian bear with the Ukrainian crisis , reported , however , the need and the urgency of a most difficult task , and in the first person of the American President and the entire administration of the White House . The statements of Obama, who has provided security for its allies in the countries that belonged to the Warsaw Pact , shows how the needs and objectives have changed . While remaining central interest in Southeast Asia, an anti China, the United States needs to engage and make their presence felt in a tangible way ; This is true not only for Poland, where Obama is visiting on the occasion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the first democratic elections after the communist rule , but also for countries that are close to Ukraine , such as Bulgaria and Romania and the Baltic States . These nations have never ceased to try to attract the attention of Washington on a possible return of Russian nationalism , functional reaffirmation of Moscow as a major world power , which could pass right by the exercise of any form of influence over the former communist countries . On the other hand this is physically what Putin has always stated in their election programs , although in a more or less veiled . The failure of Washington has been to focus almost exclusively to other areas , ignoring and underestimating the danger of the Kremlin. The case of Ukraine has taught as the fears of the former communist countries were well founded and has forced the White House to a change of direction , albeit partial . The strategic importance of Central and Eastern Europe is still of fundamental aspects for the U.S. global strategy , especially now that Russia presses on the country that is in between the two contenders . In truth, Washington has some indirect responsibility on the crisis in Ukraine for trying to accelerate the process of inclusion of Kiev in the West, to add one more member to its allies , which allowed to preside over the land right up to the Russian borders . In any case, the repeated violations of international law to the detriment of Russia have come out the real nature of Putin , justifying the alarms coming from Eastern European countries . In this perspective, Obama 's assurances aim to strengthen ties with allies in the region and , at the same time , say how they have strategic importance for Washington. Poland in particular , the presence of American troops has a high geopolitical and military value , just as anti Russian . The centrality of the Polish country on the chessboard immediately contiguous to Ukraine strategic importance prominent in American plans , but at the same time ensures Warsaw from any ambitions of Moscow. Not that this possibility is unlikely, but given the premises , Poland prefer to have on its territory a military deterrent to a certain level, putting it at the center of their defensive strategy membership in NATO . Obama's visit to Moscow could also signify a real threat in continuing its work in Ukraine, but also could have a effect of a kind of provocation almost on its borders , even if the state of the alliance with the United States of Polish country Oram is a fact acknowledged; However, the gesture of Obama, while remaining in the theory of diplomacy as the main weapon to combat international issues , is taking a commitment made ​​in an area relatively close to Russia , and in this sense should be read as an explicit warning to the Kremlin in order to avoid going too far in its action for the reaffirmation of the status of great power.
