Germany’s defence chief says the level to which Russia is building up its military, which he categorized as an “imminent threat,” is deeply concerning to him.
“Undoubtedly” is doing a lot of work there. When NATO helped coup Qaddafi it demonstrated that it is perfectly willing to be used as a regime change tool by the US. “We came, we saw, he died!” Once that happened, Russia could no longer consider NATO to be a peaceful neighbor and had to defend its national interests. It was only a matter of time until they came for Russia next.
