German Defense Chief Warns of Potential Russian NATO Attack
Germany’s chief of defense, General Carsten Breuer, warns of a potential Russian attack on NATO within the next four years, citing Russia’s significant military buildup, including the production of thousands of tanks and millions of artillery rounds. He highlights the Baltic states’ vulnerability, particularly the Suwalki Gap, and emphasizes the need for increased NATO preparedness. Breuer asserts that despite some internal differences, NATO remains unified in its response to the threat, spurred by recent expansion with Finland and Sweden. He stresses the urgency for increased defense spending and military readiness across NATO members to deter potential Russian aggression.
