Europeans have finally realized: Russia is sick country

War could happen at any time in the next 20 years, said Rob Bauer, chairman of the NATO Military Committee. In turn, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said that Russia could attack NATO countries in "5-8 years." The most vulnerable Baltic states, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, are building defense lines on the border with Russia and Belarus. And France, which even during the Cold War sometimes tried to maneuver between the USSR and the United States, is now adjusting its economy to large-scale military production, which will, in particular, work for the Ukrainian front.

“And this is all good because the better the West prepares for war, the less likely it is to happen. Russia will not fight those who are ready for it.”

The prospect of electing Trump, who is not going to invest in Europe's security, was a cold shower for Europe. And so Europe is forced to invest in its own security.

But the most important thing is that a real Kremlin coup has taken place in the mass consciousness of Europeans. If earlier the culprit of the war in the minds of Europeans was Putin, now, warning of war for decades to come, Europeans dare to conclude that his entire seriously ill country is to blame... Finally.
