Germany has no military that can compete with Russia. NATO in eastern Europe can’t seriously compete with Russia. A couple of brigades??? Putin is laughing at us. Anyway, we certianly don’t need any problems with Russia. Trump will be much better than Shrillary at foreign policy, despite her boast of “experience.”
I agree. If Russia decided to roll, there’s no way NATO could defend any country that borders Russia. Our supply lines would be hundreds of miles away from any “front”; for Russia, it’d be just outside their back door. By the time we positioned, any invasion would be over and done. All NATO can do is try to hold the line around, say, France and England. Conventional war, with men lined up shooting at each others tanks, won’t be how Russia will conduct itself, if their actions in Syria are any indication.
I don’t understand why the sudden push for NATO to publically declare Russia public enemy number one. We’ve pretty much operated on that unspoken premise for 50 years now, so what changed?
