Latvian President Edgars Rinkēvičs has commented on the head of Ukraine’s Foreign Intelligence Service Oleksandr Lytvynenko’s report that Russia might be preparing for a future attack on the Baltic States.
Russia attacking a NATO country would not remove US military forces from Taiwan. The US has the largest military force in the world they would be more than capable of sending some troops to Europe and keeping some troops in Taiwan.
Hell they probably don’t even need to send any troops to Europe. Russia hasn’t exactly proven itself to be a capable or sophisticated adversary, they have completely failed to effectively prosecute a war in which conventional air combat is basically non-existent. If they were to go into a NATO country they would absolutely be dealing with extensive air operations of which they would have no ability to defend against.
You’re underestimating the strain of the Ukraine war on ammunitions I think. Western industries are not ready for war economies. In the US or in Europe a brutal shift may even be politicaly destabilising, as the far right is already fighting to stop fighting Russia.
