  1. No, it's highly unlikely Russia would dare attack EU countries or NATO ones, we should remember that Ukraine is one of the poorest countries in Europe, they are not an EU or NATO member, for Russia, they were an easy target and yet Ukraine has been a nightmare for Russia. The simple truth is, a war with any EU or NATO country would be a disaster for Russia, it all boils down to economic power and the simple truth is, western powers have far more economic might that they only put a tiny percentage of that power on the military, if a real threat was to emerge, you can bet the economy would be put to use more on the military and considering how strong western militaries are already, if they had the full backing of the economy, the militaries would be far more powerful. In other words, Russia would have to be insane to contend taking on an EU or NATO country, and let's not kid ourselves, some might think of EU countries militaries as weak, the truth is, they are modern, highly advance militaries, and if a real threat were to emerge, you can bet resources will be thrown at the military to make them far more powerful, and that's the key, the EU, US and China have far more resources to play with thanks to the economy compared to what Russia has. Mind you, if a war were to happen, it would very likely benefit the EU as it would force EU countries far closer together, it could also be a disaster for Russia or could end up escalating into a far bigger global war which would involve a lot more players. The irony is, a major war like that would likely leave Trump in a very vulnerable position, I can't imagine the American people wanting to side with Russia or China and in a major war, it would likely force the EU and US to work together, so much so that it likely would mean the American people deposing of Trump. In any case, none of this is likely, Russia talks a good deal with its threats but it never follows through, Russia comes across as a weak player and for good reason, they don't have the economic might that the EU, US and China have. In any case, let's not kid ourselves, a major war in Europe would likely escalate globally and pull in the US and China, to put it another way, Trump could be the one in danger if he makes the wrong move that drags the US into a global conflict that he helped to create.
