I can see NATO pussing out when it comes to Russia chipping away at the Baltic states
That's one of the main reasons I've always thought it was a terrible idea to expand NATO by adding old Warsaw Pact countries. Seriously, adding them did nothing to strengthen NATO and instead only gave NATO (and us) more to defend.

Well, the problem is that they all have about 25% ethnic Russians within their borders who could likely be sympathetic to an invasion/annexation. It's a big liability and those countries really have to focus on placating and including those ethnic populations in the political process or there will be a Ukrainian situation.

Been my stance for years. 1999 was a badddd year for NATO, and us.
