Russia is not frightened by NATO, but the attack on the Alliance - suicide for the Russian Federation - analyst (video)

Russia can use the weakness of the block in confrontation with hybrid threats. The bureaucratic system of the statutes is very scrutinized in NATO, says military analyst Alexander Kovalenko. For Russia, an attack on any NATO country is a shot in the temple. Despite the bureaucratic archaism of all the statutes of the Alliance, they still work and in the event of an attack on any NATO country, all protective protocols will be activated.

Oleksandr Kovalenko, a military-political observer of "Information Resistance", told this in an interview with focus. The Russians can have any opinion and boast of anything, says the expert, but the leadership of the army of the Russian Federation is definitely not suicide. Although they gladly send millions of their citizens to suicide, they do not want to risk themselves. After all, NATO can get to Moscow much more faster than it was tried to do the rebel Eugene Prigogin, says a specialist.

"Russia is already a threat to NATO in a hybrid format," says Alexander Kovalenko. "Because no tools for counteracting hybrid threats have been worked out in NATO. And this is a real problem for the Alliance. " According to the analyst, for example, we can imagine that tomorrow in the territory of Estonia there is a kind of "Republic of Narva" and in the NATO Charter there are no points how to counter it.

Although the internal forces of Estonia or the support of individual neighboring countries may be intensified, it is extremely difficult to summarize a full military sex. "There are many so -called" non -citizens "in the Baltic States that can dream of reunification with great and invincible Russia. " And this is a real problem, "Kovalenko emphasizes. "However, hybrid influences can be not only a military but also a political, information or economic aspect.

" In general, the border factor and various kinds of migrants has been used for pressure for a long time, says expert. However, the same Finland helps to resist nature and landscape. Conscious temperature migrants from Iraq or Syria will be very difficult to break through the border and go everywhere in the winter forest.

It is important to realize that Russia is not really frightened by the "threat of NATO" because it is well known about the archaism of the Alliance bureaucracy and its protective, not an attacking function, notes the analyst . Therefore, all these chats about "NATO threat" are not true, because in such a scenario, Ukraine would just hold back all these Nativ bureaucratic procedures. Earlier, focus said that Poland had placed two pairs of F-16 fighters on the eastern border NATO.
