NATO Allies and partner nations launched the Alliance’s Trident Juncture live military exercise on 19 October 2015 during an opening ceremony at the Trapani air force base in Italy, launching three weeks of intensive training involving 36,000 troops from more than 30 nations across Italy, Spain and Portugal. Media reported that the exercise was the biggest in over a decade, and was seen as a reaction to the threats from Russia's growing military assertiveness in Europe and the Middle East. |
