The Baltic countries and Poland will deploy their troops to Ukraine in the event of serious successes by the Russian military on the front.
“If the Russians achieve a strategic breakthrough in eastern Ukraine due to insufficient Western support, the situation could deteriorate sharply. In that case, the Baltic states and Poland will not wait for Russian troops to reach their borders. Baltic politicians have warned that they will send troops into Ukraine themselves. This would mean that NATO will become a participant in the war, which the German Chancellor and the US President rightly fear,” the article says.
Baltic politicians issued this warning to Germany during the Lennart Meri conference in Tallinn.
The article also notes that the German military now assesses the prospects for Ukraine as bleaker than ever before.
Kyiv is keeping the status quo secret, even from its allies. But there are signs, such as the sudden movements of German-supplied anti-aircraft systems, that indicate desperation. The secret services also offer grim predictions: they warn that neither the additional ammunition nor the new mobilization law, which calls for more Ukrainians to serve in the military, will have a noticeable impact until late autumn.
