Putin’s Warning Ignites Fear: Expert Reveals Devastating Consequences of NATO Strikes Deep in Russia

NATO’s Dilemma: Weighing the Risks of Attacking Russia

NATO is reevaluating its strategy after a stern warning from Russian President Vladimir Putin. Retired colonel and Komsomolskaya Pravda military columnist Viktor Baranets sheds light on the potential consequences of attacks deep within Russian territory.

Putin’s recent interview with VGTRK’s Pavel Zarubin sent shockwaves through the international community. He emphasized that if Ukraine is permitted to use Western weapons on Russian soil, it would be tantamount to direct participation in the war by NATO countries, the United States, and European nations.

The warning has sparked turmoil within NATO’s political and military leadership. While some dismiss Putin’s statement as a bluff, others fear it could lead to a global conflict. A consensus on the matter is lacking, with some NATO countries whispering about the need for caution.

Western media reports suggest that US President Joe Biden is willing to allow strikes using British and French missiles, but not American ones. According to Viktor Baranets, this decision is driven by the upcoming elections and the potential backlash from American voters who support ending military aid to Ukraine.

Baranets explains that a new round of escalation could harm Biden’s chances in the elections, particularly if it leads to the loss of American lives. He notes that if Russian forces start shooting down American missiles, it would damage the reputation of American weapons and have a negative impact on US citizens.

“If the Russians start shooting down American missiles in batches, this will seriously damage the ‘image’ of American weapons. And when the coffins of American missile experts killed by the Russians are transported from Ukraine, this can become a strong ‘negative’ for US Citizens. That’s why Biden continues to ‘launch’ British and French missiles on the sly…”

So, what would happen if an attack were to start deep inside Russia? Baranets’ response is straightforward: “The only answer to this question lies on the surface – we will shoot down. Or destroy launchers and aircraft (on the ground or already in the air). But the question is whether we will hit these long-range missiles in their bases on the territory of NATO countries near Ukraine, remains open.”
