Thank you for unfucking the clickbait.
I don’t think anybody with any power in Russia is stupid enough to try to invade a NATO country when they can’t take Ukraine with old NATO weapons. Granted Lithuania is much smaller, and I assume there’s some delusions that they’re already fighting NATO and think they’re winning, but still… This just seems like they’d be asking for a nationwide teabagging.
It’ll be continued grey zone warfare; they will try to see how much they can blur the line, see the cable cutting. Now they’ve started to give the cable cutters naval escorts, daring Nato to for the first shot
You are overselling NATO, members and leadership shown themselves as weak and unwilling to defend their territories and allies, r*ssians recieved the message.
I will give two examples:
- When ru-fighter ended in turkish airspace it was shot down in less then a minute.
- When multiple shahed drones ended multiple times in polish and romanian airspace they have given strong worded warnings.
Tap for spoiler
Yes, I know that Turkey is NATO member.
There are degrees, starting world wars over a fighter getting shot down or drones being in the wrong airspace is a huge overreaction.
Whether and how they would respond to an invasion of a NATO member is untested.
Your reaction is what I’m talking about, there is 0 chances of world war starting from someone destroying a drone over their own territory, actually it lowers the chances of world war. Yet there are nations that won’t even defend their territory and ones that would. You can’t negotiate with an empire over not becoming another colony.
It might look insignificant, it just shows weakness and that it’s acceptable to attack NATO members as long as it’s light/small-scale, at worst you’ll get strong words in return.
I’m not able to follow your argument - are you trying to contrast the Turkish and Polish responses?
Yes.
That’s really not clear from your post. You make the point yourself that Turkey is a NATO member. There’s an argument to be made that it’s not worth Poland/Romania showing their capabilities shooting down drones.
allegedly
right, it’s not like r*ssians are clearly saying that they plan on attacking baltics.
And they say on Russian TV they won‘t stop until their tanks roll through Berlin‘s streets again. It‘s time to take this seriously. Those lunatics are committed. They‘re going all in on total war.
That’s hilarious. “Trump must watch our show” is so damning.
That’s probably in reference to the US invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq that ended without consequences with the world watching the “show”. And now Putler wants his own show of war crimes where the world watches on and will not hold him responsible.
That’s a weird leap. They literally mean the TV channel where they spew Russian propaganda, because Trump spews the same Russian propaganda.
Well if someone from the CIA said it, it must be true!
