Gravitas | Will Putin Invade Strategic NATO Island in Baltics? Russia's nuclear moves worry NATO

Baltic nations are worried after a draft Russian decree proposed revising its borders in the Baltic Sea. The draft decree would reportedly see Russia claiming as its territories that belong to Finland and Lithuania. Although there is no confirmation of any such plans from Moscow, Russia's recent nuclear drills near Ukraine have worried NATO veterans who say that Putin has his eyes set on capturing a key island in the Baltic Sea.

I'm from Sweden and it was obvious already before 2022 how keen the Americans were to be able to one day build a NATO naval base on Gotland - they view it as the Malta of the Baltic Sea, sort of. Unfortunately the US no longer accepts the presence of neutral or non-aligned buffer states on the map: they want to have everybody pulled inside their client/supporter states club. I absolutely don't want to have several countries around the Baltic SEa dragged into a major war by some reckless figure like Kaja Kallas, backed by the USA.

[@felixf.3392]

Why was the USA so successful during the Cold War? It implemented the Marshall Plan to economically strengthen its partners in Europe. The USA was the largest economy and opened its market to the products of its allies. The USA offered its allies a security umbrella with nuclear deterrence through NATO. As a result, America managed to push back the influence of the Soviet Union on Europe and ultimately win the Cold War. The alliance between Western Europe and the USA is proving difficult today. For example, Germany follows a mercantilist economic model and is therefore dependent on cheap energy and large growth markets. Russia and China can provide both of these for Western Europe like no other country. The USA, on the other hand, is becoming increasingly less important as an economic partner. And since the collapse of the Soviet Union, there is no serious military threat from Russia to Western Europe. Nevertheless, tens of thousands of American soldiers are still stationed in hundreds of US military bases and US nuclear weapons are stationed on German soil. If you look at the situation objectively from the US perspective, America is protecting Europe from the countries with which it has close trade relations. Europe's core interest, however, is to further expand its economic relations with the USA's biggest competitors. Don't be blinded by the politicians' rhetoric. Feelings, shared history, values, culture and traditions play no role at all in whether alliances really work. What matters is whether the interests coincide. And it turns out that the interests of Europe and the USA can no longer be reconciled today and this partnership will soon end.

[@TankEnMate]

When faced with the intrasigence of 33 nations allied against them, one can count that Russia is certainly going to be innovative in her nuclear weapon's strategy.

[@louise_rose]

Correct - if Slovakia were attacked, Sweden (or even Britain) might elect to send a submarine, which would be of limited value indeed. Many eastern European governments (including UA) seem to have a very overstated idea of what §5 means in practice - they seem to think it makes them like co-owners of the entire NATO arsenal.
