This was reported by RMF FM.

According to the Polish minister, NATO has three times more military personnel, three times more air resources and four times more ships than Russia. 

Instead, Sikorski noted that "Russia, after the first wave of mobilization, had just over 1,300,000 military personnel." He added that NATO's military personnel - without additional mobilization - is more than three and a half million people, almost three times as many.

In addition, he added that in 2022, the 15 NATO countries that most actively support Ukraine spent more than $1.17 trillion on defense, while Russia spent only $86.4 billion, which is almost 14 times less. 

  • Former US Vice President Mike Pence suggested that the Russian president would not stop at Ukraine if he wins the war.
