Related: About this forum"We Found New Threat": Putin Targets 3 New Countries for 'Very Possible' Invasion - The Russian Dude
At this point it is pretty obvious that Putin's invasion of Ukraine did not go as planned. He wanted to capture Kyiv in 3 days, he couldn't do it in 3 years. At this point, even ending war is harmful for the survival of his regime. So he prefers to maintain the hostilities as they currently are. But recently, it started to look like that he found a new threat. And Putin targeted 3 new countries for this next 'very possible' invasion. What are these countries and what is the probability of this happening?

I don't know how well-defended they are, but they are all tiny nations; they might be a lot easier to roll over than Ukraine. I don't think the Western European nations are just going to sit still and watch it happen, though.
For the love of God, would someone please put polonium in his tea?

He invades any of them, it will be considered an attack on all NATO countries. He hasn't been able to defeat Ukraine, he sure as hell can't defeat NATO.

Putin is probably planning on using Trump's America to provide him the troops he needs. America First means Russia First.
