According to a Wall Street Journal report citing US intelligence, Russia could be preparing a limited incursion against a NATO member state within weeks. The report comes as the war in Ukraine remains largely deadlocked and the impact of the conflict is increasingly felt inside Russia.
Analysts cited in the report suggest Vladimir Putin may seek to open a new front rather than risk being remembered as the leader who lost Ukraine, raising fresh questions about NATO’s readiness and resolve.
People were scoffing at US warnings that Russia might launch an attack against Ukraine back in 2022.
It feels illogical for Putin to attack NATO but he would rather lose to “The West ™” than against little Ukraine.
There’s this small, almost imperceptible difference between the US back in 2022 and the US today: US in 2022 were a partner you could somewhat trust. US in 2026 are a monarchy with a child-raping turd as a king.
