Boris Pistorius said that Russia may be ready to attack a NATO member country within a few years. He sees the preconditions for this.

The German Defense Minister stated this in the Bundestag during the discussion of the budget for next year. Germany will do everything possible to protect its integrity in the event of an attack by the Russian army.

NATO must be prepared for an attack by Russia

According to Boris Pistorius, the security situation in the Alliance countries remains very serious in the foreseeable future.

He added that the Russian army will grow by more than 30% by 2026 – to 1.5 million soldiers.

Interesting. According to the Inspector General of the German Armed Forces, Carsten Breuer, Russia may be ready to attack the North Atlantic Alliance in 5 to 8 years. During this time frame, the Russians will probably accumulate the necessary weapons and personnel.

Russia has placed its bets on the military economy and will probably be able to prepare its troops in a few years so that they will be capable of attacking NATO territory, Pistorius noted.

According to Pistorius, Berlin is taking all necessary measures to strengthen its own defense, while continuing to support Ukraine in its difficult fight against Russia.
