NATO GENERAL DIRE WARNING : Russia is 'existential' threat to us
LONDON - Britain's most senior officer in NATO has warned that Russia could invade the Baltic States using tactics on display in Ukraine. In a speech in London, General Sir Adrian Bradshaw said there is a "danger that Russia might believe that the large scale conventional forces which she has shown she can generate at very short notice as we saw in the snap exercise that preceded the take-over of Crimea could in future be used not only for intimidation and coercion but potentially to seize NATO territory." Such a move, were it to happen, would invoke Article 5 of the organisation's constitution. This states that all NATO nations must come to the aid of other members in an act of collective defence. It would bring the Alliance into direct conflict with Russia.
Sir Adrian , the Deputy Supreme Commander of NATO forces , said " We are today seeing Russian conventional forces employed, albeit subject to continued brazen denials by the Kremlin, in eastern Ukraine to assist separatists to seize territory," He added: "The threat from Russia and risk it brings of miscalculation resulting in a strategic conflict, however unlikely we see it, represents an existential threat to our whole being." It is one of the strongest warnings yet from any NATO or EU official and comes 48 hours after UK Defence Secretary Michael Fallon made similar remarks, calling Russia a "clear and present threat".
