“NATO is not going to declare war on Russia. “
Don’t be too sure about that, the US just got its puppet Lithuania to strike the match. They want this war underway before Europe realizes they are totally screwed economically from the sanctions and try backing off. Russia considers what Lithuania did an act of war. What will NATO do should Russia use force to circumvent the blockade?

I read the link you included in your post.
My God, the hyperbole. There is NO BLOCKADE! Russian goods can still transit through Lithuania; the only goods that are being excluded are those that specifically fall under the EU and NATO sanctions. And those goods can still be sent via ship and air.
If anyone is going to use this as a pretext for war it is Russia. And if it’s not this pretext, it will be another.
