this was said by our own General Bradshaw 2 years ago
"the danger that Russia might believe that the large-scale conventional forces that she’s shown she can generate at very short notice … could in future be used not just for intimidation and coercion, but potentially to seize Nato territory, after which the threat of escalation might be used to prevent re-establishment of territorial integrity.”
I very much doubt this threat has been diminished now the russians have an ally in the white house
