Mr. William Powell

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what is his latest estimate of the number of Russian forces stationed in(a) Germany, (b) Poland, (c) the Baltic Republics and (d) Georgia.

Mr. Archie Hamilton

It is estimated that there are approximately 97,000 Russian personnel in Germany, fewer than 4,000 in Poland, 42,000 in the Baltic republics and 20,000 in Georgia. This is a major reduction over the last 12 months.
