Man.. Putin the legit WOAT leader. Made the biggest unforced error :mjlol:
He is a gambler. He stole Crimea and thought he could steal a whole country and and get a slap on the wrist.
It has backfired big time but keep in mind I 'm not so sure this is how it would have been if Trump was in the White House. He was going to take US out o NATO.
Ukraine might still lose this if he gets back in.

The 3 Baltic states COMBINED are only 6 million people and about 67 thousand square miles of land, and they have a very very VERY tiny NATO presence there, no nuclear weapons, and can easily be overrun. I think it was Estonia that already literally donated ALL of their Howitzers to Ukraine? Poland is a more serious fight, but the Russians could easily pull the same play as Ukraine in the Baltics with internal destabilization by ethnic Russians and then SWARM the Baltics. Credible nuclear threat from NATO is the only thing kinda sorta keeping the Baltics in a position where they could bark at Russia, if a Republican like Trump or DeSantis wins next year you could kiss them hoes goodby
Thats not what Im saying, I know article 5 is getting triggered. But NATO is a defensive alliance, where not gonna go after the Russians proactively because that would prove Putin "right" and allow him to not only galvanize his base and the larger Russian public, in that event China and other rogue states would really start supplying them with arms and ammunition. Now Whats to stop them from massing their forces in both Kaliningrad, Belarus and the borders with the Baltics a try to Blitzkrieg them just like last year? By the time we mobilize our shyt thoroughly in response, theyll pull that fakkit nuke card that they always do when their losing and sue for peace? The only way to really protect the Baltics is to let them know in no uncertain terms that well pull up to DEFCON 2 the minute they even start mobilizing in that direction. Like others have said, its now or never for both sides, no way theyre able to get away with that shyt in the next 10 years cause were already on alert, but if they try it next year?
How is Russia going to “mass” forces it doesn’t have without the US knowing just like the US new a month in advance Russia was going to attack Ukraine? Russia has staged multiple mass mobilizations of hundreds of thousands of men and can’t take Bakhmut. Now it’s going to launch an offensive into the Baltics?

You realize there are tens of thousands of US troops, billions of dollars of worth of equipment and multiple US military bases in Eastern Europe? And Russia is going to “blitzkrieg” through it?

Are you ok?
