"NATO's Preparedness for Russia's Resilience: Military Plans in Motion"

NATO is preparing for a potential wider conflict with Russia by revamping its military plans, with up to 300,000 troops ready to move to its eastern flank within 30 days. While Russia's ground forces have been depleted by the war in Ukraine, its navy, air force, and nuclear capabilities remain a serious threat. NATO member countries are reinforcing their security near Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus, with around 40,000 troops on standby and increased air and naval presence. The alliance aims to have a permanent presence in Lithuania and is confident in its ability to respond to any Russian attack, although doubts remain about member countries' willingness to commit troops.
