I don't know. I think that overestimates the US response.

DG @rafaelmgrossi says all attacks on nuclear facilities are unacceptable as they could endanger nuclear safety and security, irrespective of where they occur.
DG Grossi also reiterates call for maximum military restraint to prevent the risk of a nuclear accident.
In the shadows, yes. We would send a message. That is a No, No!I wonder if the US would actually do anything if Russia murdered someone on American soil.
Nato: We Are Ready
NATO Military Chief Giuseppe Cavo Dragone:We have 4,000 pages of plans for the eastern flank, and this goes from the minimal crisis or interference on our soil with Article 5 and on and on.The alliance is ready. The structure is ready. The soldiers, the system, the weapons are ready.In case of an attack, I can tell you that today they have much more to lose than to gain, that’s for sure, and that’s deterrence.
- The post shares a video clip of NATO Military Committee Chairman Admiral Giuseppe Cavo Dragone stating the alliance has 4,000 pages of plans for its eastern flank, covering scenarios from minor crises to full Article 5 activation, with forces, systems, and weapons fully ready.
- The remarks were made at a September 2026 press briefing in Copenhagen following the NATO military chiefs annual meeting, emphasizing deterrence by noting that any attacker would lose far more than they could gain.
- Posted by @Maks_NAFO_FELLA, a pro-Ukraine account with over 340,000 followers, it highlights NATO's preparedness amid recent European warnings about potential Russian hybrid threats or escalations on the eastern border. Grok
Cool, then GET OUT OF UKRAINE!Russian President Vladimir Putin once again sent a message to European citizens: “We don’t want to fight you, we want to cooperate with you”“I want to say once again: Russia has no aggressive intentions toward Europe or European countries. We simply have no basis for this whatsoever. We are ready for cooperation and for restoring relations with our European neighbors.”
“But the resemblance should not be overstated. Unlike in late 2021, there is no comparable Russian troop build-up near NATO’s eastern flank.”An article from The Hungarian Conservative based on “historical comparison at face value,” places “some form of Russian attack on NATO…in February 2027.” Thoughts on this assessment?

Last Time Russia Elected Duma, Ukraine War Followed. Now Familiar Signs Are Back
Russia’s parliamentary election opened with turnout running far ahead of 2021, giving the Kremlin useful evidence of political mobilization even as war fatigue deepens. More Russians now favour negotiations and the economy is slowing, yet support for the military and Vladimir Putin remains high...www.hungarianconservative.com
Germany and Sweden are reinforcing Gotland in light of deteriorating security situation.Aerial, naval and other units are active with live weapons. It is explicitly described as not an exercise and aimed at securing logistics."Primary focus is Russia"
- The X post accurately reports a rapid, non-exercise reinforcement of Sweden's Gotland island by German and Swedish forces in NATO's Operation Silver Wotan, involving live weapons, aerial/naval units, and securing Visby port plus Swedish anti-ship missiles.
- Primary objective is enhancing NATO operational freedom in the Baltic Sea and deterring Russian hybrid threats, following earlier German A400 transport flights observed by the poster and a similar 2025 Polish-Swedish exercise.
- Gotland's strategic position makes it critical for Baltic logistics control; the operation reflects Sweden's post-NATO accession focus on quick allied reinforcements amid Europe's most serious security situation since WWII.
Here’s the German side, the other side leading the exercise, stating explicitly it was an exercise. The differentiating factor is they carried live ammunition.The Swedish Defense Minister said the following to press today: "This is no ordinary exercise. The operation is carried out for real and the forces protect the transport with real weapons, says Manne Schagerström at the Armed Forces' operations management." "Together with our German friends, we are today carrying out a rapid reinforcement of Gotland."
