Warsaw has warned Moscow that any attack on the Baltic states will spark an “immediate response.”
Polish Chief of General Staff Raimund Andrzejczak warned the Kremlin that NATO will “strike directly at St. Petersburg.”
He warned that within the “first minute” NATO will strike all Russian strategic assets within a 300km should Russian troops cross into Lithuania, NV reports.
“Ukraine is buying us a few years. If Russia wins in Ukraine, we’ll have one Russian division in Lviv, one in Brest, and one in Grodno,” Andrzejczak added.
Poland is currently buying hundreds of missiles with a range of around 900kms and they will be used across Russia and it will be the “beginning of total confrontation” if the Baltics are attacked.
