Enhanced Forward Presence (eFP)

Enhanced Forward Presence (eFP) refers to NATO's deployment of multinational forces in Eastern Europe to deter aggression and enhance security. Established in response to rising tensions, particularly from Russia, eFP involves troops from various NATO countries stationed in specific locations, such as the Baltic states and Poland. These forces conduct training exercises and engage with local communities to demonstrate solidarity and readiness. The goal is to reassure member states, bolster collective defense, and promote stability in the region, ensuring that NATO can respond effectively to any potential threats.
