Summary

Denmark’s Defense Intelligence Service warns that Russia could launch a large-scale war in Europe within five years if NATO appears weak or divided, especially if the U.S. does not intervene.

The report outlines a timeline where Russia could attack a neighboring country within six months, escalate to a regional Baltic conflict in two years, and potentially engage NATO-wide by 2029.

The assessment comes as Trump pressures NATO members to increase defense spending and has suggested the U.S. might not defend allies who fail to meet financial commitments.

        The new Axis powers of Russia, China, North Korea and U.S.A against the European powers. 10 years ago that would seem ridiculous, now, not too far fetched.

          The new Axis powers of Russia, China, North Korea and U.S.A against the European powers.

          Considering sherlock holme’s famous statement “when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth”

          So then, yes; though one can hope.

          USA’s secretary of defense is already saying that Ukraine should let go of the occupied territories, will not be allowed in NATO and will not get any security guarantees. Basically saying to let Russia win and opening the door for more invasions by Russia.

            Well most of the rare earth materials Trump wants are in Russian occupied territory, or on the border of it.

              yeah, that’s the only positive aspect, there may actually be a reason for conservatives to push for defending ukraine and regaining their land.

        Yeah, but won’t Trump be busy with the Great War on Greenland, Panama and Canada?

          I wouldn’t put it past Trump to make a deal with Putin so that he gets Greenland and can mine the fuck out of it’s untapped mineral resources.

            I’m not sure how Greenland is Putin’s to give. Denmark has a military and Greenlanders wouldn’t just sit back and let themselves be annexed.

              Oh sorry, I meant more like allying with Putin’s side if war breaks out for the potential of getting Greenland.
