Do not worry we have your back, EU brothers. and BTW I think it will be a dumb move from Russia because obviously, PL, FIN, Ukraine will be more than interested to get back some land occupied by Russia. The conflict will spread from N to S - in this scenario, it's all time Russia gaining a bit of ground on the EU - I do not think that will be case to be honest now. Even if we like to to disagree between us in politics it does not mean when defense at sake, EU will not be solidaire. Clearly EST states - the most playing games with politics recently, will change of disc, and we discover how much EU patriots they may feel. I think FR and DE will play their role of defense. Specially France, we showed against Turkey we will not let Greece (EU member) under pressure of a non EU state (EVEN IF TURKEY is part of NATO) Now, both of the side have nukes, and probably nobody will really want to use them, and a just pure classical war will be done (economy/men power/tech) and ... it is not actually in favor of Russia. Because EU nations are not really in war mode currently, means we do not put so much money or effort (in term of part of our economy) in defense. So as soon as we put EU in war mode, that will be another story. Russia spend more than +4% of its GPD in military budget, EU it is barely +2% ... (Germany not even 1.5% ... I think our Bro from DE you could do effort, specially now UK is out) even like that we still are potent against Russia. I mean Russia will benefice more to try to be friendly and work with us than trying all the time to be afraid us. We are not the USA (different foreign politic) however we wld like a fair and reliable neighbor, not one that wants all the time to potentially declare war that will bring nothing ... Or doing nasty thing, yes, we are talking about you Belorussia ;-) Still, peace and love from France!

If the french hadn't greeked on the troops they promised and if Sweden would have committed to more than profiteering off a dying nation, it could have gone a lot worse for the Russians. WW1 style trench warfare isn't fun when the enemy has enough artillery shells and bullets to spare. Russians kinda lucked out that the rest of Europe just decided to ignore everything happening in Finland, because the strategies they used to win would have been far more costly had Finland been properly supplied. It was really an attrition conflict. Keep pressing till the enemy is too exhausted to put up resistance. Even relatively minor reinforcements of 10 000 and steady supply of war material might have drastically compounded what was an extremely costly battle plan initially to a catastrophic failure. But yea, Russia isn't run by Stalin anymore.

They could have refused to go to Afghanistan because Al-Qaeda is a non-state actor, but they still helped defend the US, and that one was 20 years ago and with a state much more weakly allied than European ones.

That is a bit skewed, however, by a greater level of militarism in Russia than most member states and significantly more efficient military spending. Plus it absolutely is an "if". Greece, for example, has basically no risk of being invaded by Russia, can't afford to pay for a war, and very little love for the de facto leaders of the EU so even if they do get involved they would probably drag their feet and commit as little as possible. Many states, especially the Med nations have been warming relations with Russia over recent years. Plus its far cheaper to defend than attack and I simply don't see most member states having the will to engage in a prolonged and costly expedition.

Many nations are under greater threat from Germany than Russia. I can say personally that in Italy the idea of Germany being the self-centered overlord of the EU destroying the local economy is far from a rare one.

And let's also mention the fact that Russia would be probably taking the offensive and not fighting on their home turf, that would probably give the already poorly equipped russian forces another disadvantage. Tbh if nukes aren't used for whatever reason I cannot imagine Russia maintaining any sort of initial gain or advantage for more than some months from the start of the war.

@@I_FUCKING_HATE_KZread totally, he seems to think that Russian and EU/NATO forces are equal, they are certainly not. Russia has struggled to upgrade it equipment and as much as the west complains about our own cuts NATO forces are very well equipped and very well trained. Russian Air Force are made up of mainly old soviet era aircraft that would be picked off from a far by nato forces, while nato saturated the airspace with decoys/drones/cruise missiles/etc to deplete Russian air defences until they ran out of missiles and then swarmed in to destroy any thing that moved! precision weapons is another massive advantage that nato has over Russia, as in syria the Russians will be limited with dumb bombs and cruse missiles and rockets (great for static targets or hitting towns) but not good against a fast mobile force. russia's navy wouldn't dare leave their docks where they would be taken out one by one from long range strikes leaving only Russian subs to try to break out to attack, facing a massive nato navy hunting them with ships, subs, MPA and naval aircraft all looking for them it would be suicide. in the long run, Russia would risk losing not only vast amounts of its military hardware and forces but also probably end up losing kalingrad and more than likely nato helping Ukraine regain its lost territory. Belarus could also be over ran as it has no nuclear weapons

A new Binkov report is what I need.

binkov ignores a few things here, one of them is readiness, units are constantly training together within both nato and eu realms, the the eu rrf is on hand to respond hard, the intel and iron domes technology employed by eu nations and nato members far exceeds those of the Russians, and combined networked defense grids are key, if Russia attacks, its running a 10-1 scenario, losing ten units for every kill it achieves, wisdom says you need 3-1 to attack a defense, yet Russia can barely muster 1v1, and is outnumbered in the air by a factor of 3-4, even if it was just the EU, so even if those russian units made it to kalinin, they would be picked off very easily afterwards, and it would be a suicide run, and the end result would be them losing kalinin, its why investment in frontline stealth multi role aircraft by those nations has been key, as well as aegis air and sea domes, and in effect, its a massive radar curtain that covers the whole of europe, one that Russia has no hope of defeating without resorting to nukes.

I think it’s unrealistic to assume that forces wouldn’t accumulate at the fronts before the war begins.

Different title; Could the 11th ranked economy single-handedly take on the 4th, 7th, 8th, 13th, and 17th, with their sort of friends? Wars are economic. Russia doesn't have the economic power to sustain such an effort. And its lack of projectable air power cannot strategically target economic assets in the EU. In this it fails the same as China in Asia. The only thing winning Russia tolerance in the real world is EU dependence on Russian fossil fuels (which in this scenario, is now off the table, and by-the-way Russia's only real economic asset), US distance and cost of trans-oceanic operations, and sort of maybe China. Russia would be forced back due to economic flaccidity and risk losing its entire Baltic access in such an attack. A Scandinavian offensive wouldn't just be a diversion. Russia absolutely must set up lines at Vyborg and defend the A181 or risk an open door to losing St. Petersburg.

The fact that Russia isn’t currently a super power, doesn’t remove the objective of becoming one again! While the economy of Russia isn’t good, a war could easily be the kind of distraction Kremlin would love - and in fact, they already do it to some extent! The region in question in this video, the Baltic States, has strategic importance to Russia if they want to ensure unhindered access to Kaliningrad! There is no doubt that Russia want this, and there’s currently around 100k soldiers deployed in the region neighboring the Baltic states. Now to make Russia think twice before doing something stupid, there’s a, (in comparison small), force of NATO soldiers deployed in the region. Togheter with the National forces it reaches a strength of around 10%-15% of what Russia has. Now this isn’t enough for sustained battle, but it’s hopefully enough to act as a deterrent against hostilities - and if it isn’t, then their primary objective is to stall a Russian invasion for 48 hours, at which time major reinforcements will arrive... So let’s not pretend Russia isn’t a threat just because their economy is poor...

This means - in case of attack Russians probably would attack stationing Germans, Brits or US soldiers which would be direct attack on that country. The chance that NATO would not actively contribute to the defense I would rate at 2%.

EU Countries might unite were Putin to threaten to take his shirt off.

I would think that the mere possibility of Putin displaying his perfectly chiselled abs would be enough to send the EU running.

EU would just let Putin eat Baltics, so they would not have to fight with Russia for Baltic countries. The only hope is NATO response, so Russia would, by declaring war on Baltics also declare war on US an UK

@Sunny Europe Do you really think Europeans care so much about each other? ) It sounds great in words and slogans, but when in reality you need to fight or lose money for other people, then everyone somehow thinks about why to fight for a dispute from which you will never get anything

Yeah, despite the increasing tensions and the last president of United States supporting Morocco Sahara, unless Morocco has the support of a great power, even in the case that Spain is alone it would be totally destroyed, Spain is the 18th military in the world while Morocco the 53th and with recent wars experience in logistics and attack of infrastructure, if the Moroccan government goes crazy and attacks it would be a swift but bloody deal, with all their infrastructure broken. Plus despite the situation, the government of Morocco is soo far away from the popular opinion of the Moroccan people that will lose support inmidately in a aggressive war against Spain, many Moroccan industries and people live and deal with international affairs and economical and will be totally against this for only two cities.

cool beans!

Really like these "what if" scenario videos, especially because you take the politics, logistics and capability into account, great vid you got a like and sub from me! Now to watch the rest of your videos!

Everyone talking about how we know the answer for certain now. But no one talking about how Binkov said "as a gamer I have to say"
