Short of? Eastern Europe is being invaded and Europe is standing by...
Rbf, I think they're waiting for the real* Europe to be invaded.
So I'm guessing next they'll exclude Poland from the definition of "real" Europe
Poland is in NATO, that would trigger Article V. How much more “real” do you want it to be?
It will take another 20-30 years before the Russians recover enough from their current losses to even start considering attacking a neighbouring country that can fight back.
Estonia, Latvia, and Moldova seem to be the next likely targets.
If they defeat Ukraine on the battlefield Moldova and Georgia would be pushovers
I did say a country that can fight back. Moldova and Georgia aren’t going to align themselves with NATO and won’t receive the funding and arms that Ukraine has.
People talking about Poland being next are delusional.
With the losses the russians suffered in their invasion of Ukraine, Poland alone could, quite heavily, stomp on grabby russian fingers. Not to mention that our brothers would not stand alone.
