RF is more dangerous than the Nazis in 1939: General told how much NATO has time for preparation

According to the former Chief of Staff of the United Kingdom, there are three countries that can cause the beginning of global confrontation in the future. In this regard, the Alliance should start training now. The former British General Staff Chief believes that some countries are more dangerous than the Nazis in 1939 and their actions can lead to the beginning of the Third World War. Among them are Russia. This is stated in The Times.

According to him, we are talking about the Russian Federation, China and Iran, through which a global confrontation can begin in the future. That is why, according to the British general, NATO has time to prepare for the end of the decade. That is, over the next six years, the Union should be prepared for possible threats. In particular, it is about the modernization of weapons to prevent attack in the Alliance.

Separately, the General added that most estimates indicate that Russia has only five to ten years to restore the forces that it had before the war in Ukraine. The military is convinced that against the background of a likely war with Russia and its allies of Britain, it is necessary to take the right steps now. First of all, it is about the modernization of the Armed Forces.

Currently, the UK armed forces continues the Western military, not strong enough to "repeat the invasion of south of Iraq, which they made in 2003, or even capture the Falkland Islands again, as they did it in 1982. " Earlier, Reuters, citing its own sources, reported that NATO countries lacked 35-50 brigades for full implementation of the Protection Plan from attack by Russia.
