Is it fair to say at this point that NATO is quite likely to lose a conventional war with Russia? There's basically no way for them to defend tiny countries like the Baltics for example.
2 more weeks

>>lots of NATO personnel embedded in its forces
Proofs?
Lets go, total war between Russia and NATO, it's the only way to know for sure.
>AHHHHHHHH! AAAAAAAAH! MAMA, SAVE ME! I DON'T WANT TO DIE!
Does it still count as "boots on the ground" if one is up a tree?
russians now writing fanfic to cope kek
>There's basically no way for them to defend tiny countries like the Baltics for example.
Very good point. Russia can simply rush the baltics or Poland and do a quick capture - it would take 2-3 weeks. NATO literally cannot react fast enough to do anything - and as we know russian captured territories are under the nuclear umbrella immediately.
This is why anyone with a higher than average IQ knows that at least for eastern europe NATO is a dead, fake alliance that cannot defend them without embroiling in a nuclear conflict. Slavs in those countries are not generally very intelligent so they keep pissing Russia off. Eventually they will have to walk the walk and probably sooner than later. Bottom line is dont invest in East Europe
If that were true why has Russia never invaded a NATO member?
>you can't take back baltics or we will end the world
>NATO call the bluff and commit
>Russia doesn't nuke half the world because their little invasion of a foreign country failed
wow
>it would take 2 weeks
Ok. But, bear with me here, Vlad, what if that's not true anymore because NATO sees what Russia does in Ukraine?

So that we can reinforce even faster.
tl;dr: NATO is abandoning the tripwire troop concept and is switching to keeping serious defence forces stationed inside specific NATO border countries (such as the Baltics, Poland, etc.)
That would take years
Well russia is effectively crippled so NATO has lots of time
Yeah but so will taking Kiev so Russia is going to be too busy to open a second front for awhile.
Ok. But what if it... doesn't? What if SOME EVENT HAPPENING ON ITS BORDERS is giving NATO, a defensive military alliance made up of the richest and most productive nations on earth both the funds and motivation it needs to adopt its new strategy within a few months?
Maybe, which is why we are sending Ukraine equipment, if the Russians are bogged down in Ukraine they aren't invading the Baltics meaning NATO can do whatever NATO likes for the next few years in Eastern Europe and the Russians can't do shit about it.
to NATO standards
>>lots of NATO personnel embedded in its forces
You pulled both of these out of your ass. In reality the Ukrainian military is arguably just as incompetent as the Russian one. Of course a poorer country with much less manpower is gonna lose to a nation that doesn't care about casualties in the slightest.
>lots of NATO personnel embedded in its forces
show me
I do like on the plebbit worldnews thread, they still pretend this isn't a proxy war between NATO and Russia.
Honestly can't tell if NATOcels are that delusional or they're actual morons.
You may remember from real proxy wars like Vietnam and Korea the US put boots on the ground, this is just offering unlimited money and arms in exchange for Russian scalps.
>trained to NATO standards
Couple of guys with barebones training is not NATO standard
>armed with NATO weapons
Armed with old soviet shit, and only now is getting old NATO shit
>provided with NATO intelligence
Sure
>lots of NATO personnel embedded in its forces
proofs
>more motivated than any NATO army, partially due to fighting on their home turf
And also due russians constant atrocities, but sure
>fully mobilized to the point where even women are going to get mobilized
lol
>being supplied by NATO in peace economy and without the strain of war (meaning supplies may as well be infinite)
Sure
>Russia hasn't even mobilized at all
Russia has mobilized as much as it realistically can
>still getting BTFO
lol
They're not armed with the US Navy and US Air Force. A conveniental war between Russia and NATO would probably look something like this.
Honestly with all his bullshit a conventional war between NATO and Russia might just be a decapitation strike and a Marshall Plan.
There would be a few vatniks moronic enough to keep fighting but I think the majority would stand down as soon as Putin didn't have a gun to their backs.
