Their discussion was decided by NATO leaders during a summit in Warsaw in July 2016, under a greater collective protection tightened following Russia's annexing the Crimea and the offensive of separatist prorus rebels east of Ukraine in 2014.

“These battalions demonstrate a direct response to Russia's aggressive actions, including provocative military activities on the outskirts of NATO territory, which significantly exacerbated stability and security, increased in unpredictableness and changed the security circle”, highlighted in a joint statement Great Britain, the US, Canada and Germany, supporting leadership staff as well as Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, host countries.
