- The war in Ukraine has led NATO to re-evaluate security, especially on its eastern flank with Russia. Germany's recent announcement of a permanent troop deployment there - the first of its kind since the second world war - is just one such change.

#NATO #Russia #security
I feel like most western governments and societies are still asleep when it comes to Russia.
Russia is number 1
Complacency
In your dreams Russia can't test NATO @@jking3260
Russia asked for peace for years Nato didn't hire.There will be trough EU and others Nato countries total destruction. WAR NEWER HAPPENS FROM ONE SIDE.
IT IS LAST MOMENT THAT PEOPLE WAKE UP ⏰️ IN WORLD AND DISMISSED WAR MONGERS. PLANET EART NEED PEACE AND JUSTICE NOT WINNERS.
@@LloydTaray-bt7ho Russia always been. They defeated and captured Berlin
Yeah "unwavering unity" America has threatened to leave sick of paying for everything, Turkey are playing both sides, Hungary are almost more with Russia than NATO, Poland thinks the line is way too soft and the western populations at large are becoming increasingly more divided on the issue of Ukraine aid.
What scares me the most are not all the problems of modern society, but leaders refusal to even acknowledge their existence before its too late to deal with them.
The problem is the west. They have a military-industrial money complex vacuum they need to fill.
Spot on.
Sad pessimism. There are so many bright sides currently within the cooperation of both EU and NATO. Sure there are always challenges and definite improvement points, but down the line it's almost never been better in the west than now.
Denmark, Norway, Sweden (soon), Finland cooperating within Nato makes Europe even more secure.
@@Broodplank86 How is it pessimistic to point out obvious problems that needs to be addressed? Looking at the "bright side" never improved anything, it only leads to arrogance and complacency witch is not something we can currently afford.
The UK, France and Finland seem to be the only Western European (if one can even use that term nowadays) who take their defences seriously. And both the UK and France want to have things their own way. Germany seems to finally build up, but it's gonna be a slow, slow, slow process. No wonder a lot of countries are looking more to Poland.
As it should be: Poland borders Russia, Germany does not. Also I don’t recall Poland sending their own troops to Baltic countries to protect and defend as Germany did. Germany is also protecting East Europe‘s skies from the baltics to Slovakia to Romania.
Would you also please explain to me how the UK, France and Finland could be considered more serious about European defense than Germany? Because from what I know the exact opposite is actually true.
@@Ultima-Signa You are mangling his words. He didnt claim those three are serious about european(!) defense.
@@Ultima-Signa How about Germany starts spending 2% of its GDP on its defense and stop leeching its security off others, as it has done for the last 40-plus years,
defending whom
If you do not spend enough money on your own army, one day you will have to pay for some else... As Russia's neighbours for centuries we have learned this hard way a few times already... Thats why we have given 1/3rd of our tanks = over 230 to Ukraine and we are now spenfing ca 4% of GDP on replacing them with new ones. Greetings from Poland.
One day you will have to fight your enemy whether you want to or not.
Russia cannot even win against Ukraine. How many minutes will Russia survive against NATO? 15 Min?
@@randydarklight These are grave considerations for a heli-cap skeeter boy
Greetings from the USA. Poland is a great allie for us. I believe that Poland can very well hold its own against Russia. Poland is not to be messed with.
@@jerrybartlett273 Dear Jerry, thanks for your kind message. I am 53 now and like my dad had obligatory Russian at school. I hope my sons and maybe grandsons will not have to learn it. If needed we will fight of course - as we always do - but the numbers are not favourable. As our population is simmilar in size to Ukraine there would be ca 4:1 ratio of Russians against us Poles... I hope other NATO countries will send than at least the aviation and we would not be not left alone like in 1939 when Brytan and France did nothing but a "sitzkrieg". I guess Russian attack on Ukraine has opened many eyes in Western Europe. And with the US army in deployed in Poland now I think we are much safer. If however Ukraine is left without help and they loose the next on the Russian Menu will be Estonia Latvia and Lithuania. But I think neither we nor Fins would not let them be taken easily... As long as the US is not taken over by isolationists we have good chances...
Anyone out there who still thinks they can continue to neglect spending on military defense is living in an alternate reality.
Anyone who thinks that it can win a nuclear war with tanks and airplanes is living in an alternate reality.
This, unfortunately was the only way to wake nato up. And to be honest, I’m afraid they will dose off again as soon as this conflict dies down.
@@cm-qt9ir US will spend either way.
@@cm-qt9ir It's not that simple. Pretty much the whole Europe, apart from the countries bordering Russia, thought that there would be no big wars anymore. So, it's not like "the USA will handle the defense in our stead", but rather "the USA is wasting so much money in the military, we will spend the money elsewhere". Countries bordering Russia thought otherwise, however. Finland, for example, has now also relatively speaking a more powerful military than ever before. It's partially thanks to some other countries letting go of their military capability and selling even modern equipment to anyone willing to buy, believing it would never be needed again. That's how Finland built its Leopard 2 fleet.
Unfortunately Canada is saddled with such blind, small minded, ignorant politicians, with Justin T running our government and destroying our country.
Europeans need to understand that relying too heavily on the US is not good, long term.
The day US collapse all western countries will suffer and become poor

Peace is just the interim between war.
If Turkey does (has done) as reported... side with Russia and Syria and put troops on the Syria border, it is HIGH time to have a serious look at Turkey's Nato allegiance.
Do you realize that the Turkish army is about 11 times more massive than the army of the United Kingdom ? If Russia and Turkey were to ally it would be a giant blow for Nato. There is a reason that Turkey is in NATO even though its leader is a borderline dictator. Or do you not remember how he purged all of his political oponents, aswell as the inteligency during the 2016 "coup attempt" and the whole NATO just stood in silence ?
In this report the footage of Turkish Bayraktar Akinci was shown twice.
Why has US put troops in Syr?
Turkey has an actual border with them, also 4 million of them live inside Turkish borders as rfgs and millions under Turkish army protection in Syr. So why can't TK be there?
Turkey is not allied with Syria
Turkey plays its own game, but it’s certainly not an ally of Russia. Never has been. Quite the opposite in fact.
oh? from all this... Turkey crosses your mind? Like re-arranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
If NATO doesn't pony up NOW and increase deliveries of weapons , ordinances , and new military capabilities to Ukraine , then if Russia wins there , NATOs military expenditures will make what they are spending now seem trivial .
Those are Taxpayers spending
The whole idea is politicians master MIC make profits😅
You might find this comforting: If the tide of the war dramatically changes and Russia regains the initiative, the're still not going to able to the country overnight. The best-case scenario for Russia is this takes months, possibly years, to achieve its goal. It's not as if the second we suspend aid Russia will instantly win the war the very next day.
And during this time frame, Russia will commit so many war crimes and make so many diplomatic fuckups, the holdouts on Ukraine will have plenty of reasons to reverse course.
Russia is insanely good at self-sabotage.

That’s a nice way to say the war was to launder American and European tax payers’ money into the Military Industrial Complex.
I hope it's about cost-effective weapons meant for war between states.
considering how we’re struggling to supply one country at war, I would say not well-prepared.
We're struggling to provide them with old weapons. NATO doesn't rely on artillery like the Russians and Ukrainians do. It relies on F35s, cruise missiles, and strong naval power.

@@RSjs25 it did back than but people can change the only reason Gaza and Israel are at war and maybe even other nations is because putin wanted Ukraine to himself and his government and president friends are helping him get his way the people in the states have no rights to say anything a lot if putin government and president friends don't care about their people they only care about their wants putting their people and other nations people at risk to suffer and die I'll admit us was not great back than but it has changed but putin forcing his people to fight for him against their own will this putin Xi and Donald Trump and their other government and president friends are probably doing the same to their people the only reason us is getting involved with Russia is because putin wanted Ukraine knowing there weak they are a small nation compared to Russia and China but everyone can't just set back and let people get their own land taken away from them and there children if putin would stop the war he started in Ukraine their will be a solution to stop the other wars in other nations but putin won't he rather let the war go on and war in other nations go to kill each other we people can't stop going against each other and not helpi each other is making life hard for every living thing to live on this planet
@@RSjs25 where did Nato invade?
Because they have been invading their neighbours. Some of those are NATO countries, however Russia still thinks it is on the XIX century and can simply bulldoze a smaller country, just because it is next door.
we have seen how prepared they are
I hope NATO are learning lessons from the 2nd world war and also considering how to counter China and Russia at the same time. Like when Japan decided to join the war, China will not miss an opportunity to step in if it thinks NATO has its hands full with Russia.
The problem for China, is every time they rattle the saber, they kiss another $100 million in business and manufacturing goodbye. They need to decide if they are going to be militaristic or capitalistic.
Best thing China could do would be to sign a permanent peace treaty with Taiwan and sponsor Taiwan into the UN. That would do so much to stop the bleeding.
Lol I guess the US showed us that you can be militaristic and capitalistic at them same time. @@macmcleod1188

Agreed. I know they are getting a couple more jets and navy ships but I think they need to do better.
As much as Canada has been known for finding strong abled people when time comes we need more people at the ready and better equipped.
The north is defended by 1-2 weapons ships and canadas rocky terrain (northern shield) but as things thaw out due to global warming they are finding new routes
The NATO members very close to Russia have always tried to keep a decent military for their size. I can respect them for that truly.
The rest of European NATO however? Went from virtually no military to a joke of a military with this change.
Romania invested a ton of money in it's military lately, and they won't stop anytime soon how i see it.
The EU members have in total 1 513 510 active military personnels (not counting all the reservists) so the same as the US. Our weakness is the lack of unity and organisation not our numbers or money.
So you’re saying that France, UK, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Belgium, etc all don’t have a military? Even though several of those have conscription still? Yeah okay. Keep talking
@@ryancumbie8148 I would say France has a military but they are all currently getting their butts kicked in Africa like its 1939.

Waiting to watch on my television screen. What will the title be?
NATO should take over
defensive operations in Ukraine, so Ukraine can focus fully on their offensive and winning back their territory.
We could call it a special defensive, military operation.
NATO should not have involved at all
😅😂😅...Slava Russia 🇷🇺
Are you crazy ?
Ukraine are not a NATO member, so NO. They shouldn't even be getting supplies from NATO countries IMO but on the other hand you can't let Russia take Ukraine because it will be Poland and other ex Soviet territory that they take next.
Winning back a territory full of people who don't want to be part of the Ukraine anymore? It's obvious you don't understand how democracy works.
The thing is all those other European countrys are to small to beat Russia in eurupe.
But like ants and wasps if you fight together you can overwhelm your enemy.
Russia has zero capability of even being in Europe ffs.
NATO airbases need improved, layered air defense to prevent being crippled by drone and missile attacks. Our air forces aren't worth much if they're destroyed on the ground.

Stoltenberg always looks like he needs to use a bathroom. Anybody in the West seriously thinks of him as of the one who has competence to manage military issues?
He is the spokesperson, it is in his name secretary.
So unprepared!
Ukraine has shown that Russia is a paper tiger, to put it mildly. Corruption and incompetence at all levels of command, an alarming lack of maintenance of military hardware, extremely low morale amongst the soldiers and conscripts, susceptibility against modern weapon systems. Not to mention that it's hardware has been seriously depleted, to the point it's been trying to get military shipments from North Korea and Iran. It's very likely a single NATO member like Poland could easily stand up to Russian forces at this point.
The only serious threat remaining is Russia's nuclear stockpile, assuming they haven't let it rust away like the rest of their military.
Thank you , finally someone mentions the elephant in the room. Poland alone could take care of Russia
Preparedness is 1/100th the price of war, and signals renewed valuing of Democracy. Ask Bakhmut what a two-sided stomping does for a town, it's remnant population, and democracy there.

Ok listen guys, I was in the Russian army in 2014 when this whole thing started escalating. We were all mobilized, waiting for a signal to go to those hot spots. Luckily, it blew over and I could finish my compulsory military service soon after. No one I know there in the army, in different ranks, was eager to fight. Quite the opposite, soldiers and officers just wanted to be home safely. So, please don’t say how Russia is an aggressor. There were politics and governments involved, with their own agendas. The Russian people are the most chill, peaceful and generous people I know. I’m Russian myself but I’ve lived abroad for many years. So trust me, I know what I’m talking about, having lived in multiple countries and cultures. Say what you want about war, but please leave those simple Russian people alone. They don’t deserve western hate. And they are definitely suffering from the war.
I get what youre saying, but although Putin is an autocratic leader, there are still elections. Maybe Russian people SHOULD have elected someone other than Putin? Maybe then, nobody would be in war? I know the decision to go to war isnt on Russian people, but the decision to put the people in charge, is definitly on them. So yeah, there is some blame on you guys, sorry about that.

Russia about 1.3 M active solidiers/military personal (exausted and bound in Ukraine)
Nato about 5.9 M active solidiers/ m.p. (gigantic backup)
Russian military aircrofts about 4.000
Nato military aircrofts about 22.000
Russian Navy about 600 ships
Nato Navy abou 2.200 ships
(Russia one nuclear power on two continents
Nato three nuclear powers on three continents)
...
Just some official facts
@@leslievincent20 please do point out where NATO has fought russia
LOL. What a joke. The contributor is trying hard to cope.🤣🤣🤣🤣
Was that the Assasins Creed logo on the Apache?
More than you think. If Russia can't handle one country already the last 2 years, just imagine for a second what happens if they go in war against 31 additional countries.
We can t fight russia like russia can t fight as..it is a self distruction world war let s say it like it is
Russia doesn't want war with NATO obviously but they will never allow ukraine to be a member
Very good!
That Nato changed the doctrine to immidiate response. Russia remains aggressive.
na to expanded and russia the agressor? ukraine is the last straw of that aggression. dont give me that expansion not by force and by choice, they should have respected the line.
last time i checked nato is at Russia's door so who is the aggressor@@gtaraya
@@frankrenda2519 Last I saw it's ruzzia that's attacking sovereign countries and trying to make their border with NATO bigger if they won Ukraine.
@@frankrenda2519nope , Ukraine asked to join NATO
Did Nato invade Russia? No. As far as I remember Russia invaded Ukraine in order to annex it and Nato is bs excuse for russian greed. If Russia was a good neighbour, there would be no need to join nato in oorder to be secured. @@frankrenda2519
Russia is depleted. I say go in for some regime change
Trust the people on the ground to do whats necessary.
Wasn't it Trump that most recently asked why all NATO members weren't committed to two percent GDP for security?
Not a fan of the man, but you were told this would be a problem several times by US officials.
That was sorted 2 years ago
still, true comment
@@joso7228 And yet, here it is mentioned again by a GERMAN news agency...
If it was sorted two years ago, then why are they just figuring it out today?
@@Veritas.0 because it takes longer than 2 years for the sorting to have real world effects? 😅
We told them its not a good idea to retreat from Afghanistan, because it will show NATO weak, but they didnt care.
It takes ample resources and a will to fight a war, Nato has neither.
Why is NATO even concerned? I thought Russia was weak, foolish and loosing this conflict.
Idol ia high
I like how they say “is nato prepared for Russian offensive” and show clips of women in military form lol. Don’t show this to Russia. These affirmative action hires would cause you a loss.
If Russia can’t handle Ukraine how can it do anything to NATO which is extremely advanced technologically. But lot of money can be wasted in these efforts by both NATO and Russia which will benefit other powers
Nato can't protect Ukraine alghough do it's best. Why do you think it can let's say Lithuania? We see Europe is absolutely cowardicy and greedy, nobody wants to donate for other's problem, every thinks only about itself. If alliance ever be attacked we would see all the same: millions of words, and absolutely far from enough in action
Yeah still Russia have huge junk of army to use Ukraine is operating 100% while Russia is still not even calling it a a war
Ukraine would have folded in weeks if it wasn't armed and funded by all NATO members. And zelinsky is still begging every week for more replacements
They are doing enough damage to Ukraine
@@josephkush1032But Ukraine only represents a fraction of NATO's capability, Ukraine had 18 HIMARS while NATO has 550 with another 500 on order. In a conventional war Russia would have to face 40 Ukraines
It is about time. Years lost . But future looks bright .
New threats,,, you mean old threats was Serbia and Libya
You can not win against a hyper sonic nuclear capable advisory.. In chess we draw at move 30 and then both loose like nepo and dubov in yesterdays blitz world championship match..
Uh, NOT PREPARED at all.
It could get prepared, but that will require EU nations to 3x or even 5x their defense spending and industrial capacity.
I hope Europe will prove to be more than talk, but we will wait to see if that happens.
As a war Veteran, I can say this is a massive mistake waiting out the war for legal purposes. We've all heard of the law hindering our business or traveling but this time the law could potentially put U.S and Europe in a dire situation. On top of that comes an outstanding award of confidence for the winner, if russia wins it's going to be a reckoning of confidence. 💯
Россия победит, вы не отсидитесь воду из лужи за счастье будет попить, скоро
NATO is only as strong as its individual members. Germany, in particular, has a serious aversion to militarization that it desperately needs to move past.
By “upgraded” you mean depleted??? 😂
Thank goodness...and its about time.
telling Ukraine that they can join NATO, was a good "preparation" in 2019
If we had stats on munition production in terms of KIA casulaties. In essence whos the earths largedt arms dealer?
Russia already is fighting with NATO but Ukrainian uniform😂
If that were true then the war would've been over 674 days ago
