Russian language media has been indicating Estonia and/or Lithuania for years now.

Interesting, but that could be a head fake. The U.S. has a weak, outgoing president and Europe is overwhelmed with problems of its own right now. None of this is lost on the crafty chess player Putin.

Note also how aggressive he has been in recent years operating elements of strategic forces near the territorial limits of the U.S and other countries.

Not saying he is planning a major conflict, just preparing for another “win” at our expense. The timing just seems right to me.

“The U.S. has a weak, outgoing president and Europe is overwhelmed with problems of its own right now.”

Jimmy Carter’s last year all over again, when the Soviets invaded Afghanistan, and islamist dictatorship was brutally imposed on Iran.

China will be tempted to grab as much as they can, while the getting is good - a global looting riot, while the cop is off the beat.
