World War 3 is the hobgoblin of the modern military world,
what with wars and civil wars and proxy wars springing up all over the globe.
But a think tank is now warning the West to be wary of Russia and its military
build-up and increased maneuverings and war exercises, for, according to them, they
could actually disguise troop and materiel movement that would be the vanguard
of a sweeping invasion that NATO and the Western powers might not be able to
stop or contain.
It was reported recently that the Atlantic Council,
an international affairs think tank headquartered in Washington, D.C., issued
its latest dispatch on the state of potential military weaknesses with regard
to Russia, finding that the world’s largest nation (land-wise) could easily
mount a quick and efficient attack in eastern Europe and, in effect, declare
war “overnight” and take over the Baltic states before the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization (NATO) could mount anything close to an effective defense.
It would be a military action that could very well lead to World War 3.
According to observers, Russia could cut off the Baltic
states in a lightning-quick attack that could very well catch NATO and its
member nations completely off-guard. Such a move would then place intense
pressure on the autonomy of Poland and other NATO nations along the Russian
border. The duo warns that “the West misunderstands Russia, assuming that it
will obey the rules even if we are not willing to enforce them.”
There is also a report pointing to Russia’s increased militarization and
its increase in training exercises, not to mention the recent deployment of
Russian nuclear missile launchers in a convoy to travel from Russia’s European
border to the Mongolian border (per Russia Today), as the perfect cover
opportunity for a Russian surprise invasion of nations like Latvia, Estonia,
and Lithuania. (It is believed that, like the Ukraine, Russia still covets the
idea of restoring the power of Russia to its former glory — that of its
greatest territorial expanse when it was part of the Soviet Union.)
It would be easy for President Vladimir Putin to send
Russia’s military into the Baltic states quickly using military exercises as a
guise until the invasion was implemented.
“Turning one of these exercises into an operation against
one or several of the Baltic states would give very little or no early warning
time for NATO,” the report warned.
I am posting this informations to you readers of this blog so that you cn know that war may happen anytime.
May God save our souls
