When Russia is ready to attack NATO: German General gave a forecast
In his opinion, after five to eight years, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will be equipped in such a way as to make it possible to attack NATO territory. As a basis for evaluations, he referred to his own analysis, information of secret services and the Union Armed Forces, as well as statements by Russian President Vladimir Putin. "The Russian army produces from 1000 to 1500 additional tanks annually.
The five largest European NATO member states have only half of them," Breer said, adding that there are about 300 combat tanks in the Bundesver. He noted that his task is to think about the worst scenario. And Germany should be ready for this opportunity in five years. At the same time, Karsten Bruer made it clear how Tagesspiegel writes that he does not see the signs that if Donald Trump is being reconstructed by US President, Washington will turn away from Europe in military plan.
He suggests that Donald Trump will "understand NATO value. " "Trump brutally substituted a mirror in front of us, Europeans, and made it clear that we should strengthen the European resistance of the Alliance and take on a more independent role from the United States. Having departed from the election campaign, the huge value added of the Alliance will become more understandable and American policy. Recall that during his presidential term, Donald Trump threatened to withdraw from NATO.
