1. Russia is going to collapse due to sanctions
2. Russians are stealing toilets
3. Russians are using Cold War tech
4. Glorious Ukrainian army penetrating all to Moscow
5. Putin is sick
6. Putin has double
7. Ruble is not worth shit
Now somehow Russia is planning to invade half the Europe.
Right…
You are desperately trying to make this local problem worlds problem. Thankfully Europeans are not that blind to give war profiteers power.
Always the same phrases same dialect

“Mr Petraeus claims Putin, 72, plans to launch a military offensive in NATO country Lithuania if he successfully ‘installs a Russian puppet’ to lead Ukraine.”

Start pouring NATO forces into the Baltics. Show that coward pootler some resolve.

Lithuania would isolate the rest of the baltics so there’s the motivation for going for Lithuania first as it would also connect kaliningrad to Belarus (aka Russia basically).

If you have a look at the map, plus read about the Zapad military drills, this is quite an obvious target.

Yea this ain’t surprising. They need Lithuania for many reasons, for example to better isolate rest of Baltics and Finland from mainland Europe and to easier access to Kaliningrad. It’s also in their bucketlist[*](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_Geopolitics) although they haven’t really set them in numerical order but makes sense in this order.

“Plans” doesn’t mean they will.
Russia is not stupid enough to start a war against NATO. Even if we exclude USA from the war, they would still have no chance to win.

No he is not, it being a NATO country only Indcates that such information is likely a distraction.
You say this and if NATO taes it seriously and it moves it’s fire power there, that leaves another spot more vulnerable.

Well, Germany is now permanently stationing an armored brigade in Lithuania.

Russia cant win war against 40mil Ukraine. How do the plan to win war against NATO?
Happy-Video7343 on
