In 2016, a 10-day maneuver was carried out in [[Poland]] with 31,000 NATO troops from 24 nations and thousands of  tanks and other vehicles. The exercise was the first time German troops taking part crossed [[Poland]] towards Russia since the [[Operation Barbarossa|Nazi invasion of 1941]].  These moves led then German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier to accuse NATO of “saber-rattling” and “war-mongering.” Steinmeier told ''Bild am Sontag'' newspaper: "What we shouldn’t do now is inflame the situation further through saber-rattling and warmongering. Whoever believes that a symbolic tank parade on the alliance’s eastern border will bring security is mistaken. We are well-advised to not create pretexts to renew an old confrontation,”  saying it would be 'fatal to search only for military solutions and a policy of deterrence.”<ref>https://consortiumnews.com/2022/01/28/the-tangled-tale-of-nato-expansion-at-the-heart-of-ukraine-crisis/</ref>
