This claim comes from the New York Times. Ukrainian officials have reached out to their NATO counterparts with a request to train 150,000 new recruits. They want this training to occur closer to the front lines so that they could quickly be deployed after training is complete. According to Brown, that decision to send trainers is coming closer.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>From Fox News:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>However, the move to deploy trainers could draw the U.S. and Europe more directly into Russia&#8217;s war with Ukraine. U.S. leaders have said they will not put U.S. troops on the ground in Ukraine and have urged NATO allies not to do so either.<\/p>\n<p>Brown said that such a move now would put NATO trainers at risk and would most likely mean deciding whether to use precious air defenses to protect the trainers &#8212; instead of critical Ukrainian infrastructure near the battlefield, the New York Times reports.<\/p>\n<p>An attack on trainers could force the U.S. to honor its NATO obligations under Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, thereby dragging it into war.<\/p>\n<p>Former President Eisenhower sent U.S. advisors to train forces in South Vietnam in 1956 as he was worried about the spread of communism. The U.S. got incrementally sucked into military operations in Vietnam with former President Kennedy deploying 12,000 U.S. military advisors stationed in Vietnam by 1962.<\/p>\n<p>Rep. Eli Crane, R-Ariz., tells Fox News Digital that deploying military trainers would lead to a wider war in the region.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Play stupid games win stupid prizes. This escalation will not make one American&#8217;s life better and will drag us closer to the brink of global conflict,&#8221; Crane, a member of the House Freedom Caucus, said in a statement.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Additional Reading:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dorgan, M.
