  1. This scenario in this video is unlikely. If I was Putin I would concentrate my army along the border in secrecy instead of having it spread out like in this video. Having it spread out and then call upon it after the war starts is just stupid. I would rather want to make a fast hard punch into the Baltics before western powers can react. I want a fast victory thanks to surprise and superior force. The 30.000 defenders will be heavily outnumbered many times over by the Russian army, and it will not be able to deal with all superior number of tanks and artillery. And even if they would put up a skillful resistence they would end up being crushed as they soon run out of ammo. All help they can hope for is allied air power. But the Russian advance will be protected by an umbrella of anti-aircraft missiles - just like Egypt had in 1973 when it attacked Israel and inflicted heavy losses on the superior Israeli airforce that was unable to do much to stop the enemy ground invasion. Diplomatical measures would also be used. I would play out EU countries against each other and delay a co-horent response until all of the Baltics lay in Russian hands. And then I will start making peace talks from a position of strenght. Will the war end now? Or will western powers risk a long and bloody war for the Baltics against their own economical interests? The German hippie nation are unprepared for a big army. Its army is badly trained and equiped and its numbers are relativly small for being such a big country. And the population is anti-war and anti-militaristic. And the country is selfish and care more of its economic self interest than solidarity with other EU countries and this country have no strong moral convictions either. It happily makes deals with China and selling poison gas to Iraq which then uses it against Iran, and then Germany sells gas masks to Iran and also makes money that way. Germany is that country that happily steals hospital equipment from its neighbours so people die. So I don't expect Germany to lift a finger to help anyone. On the contrary have it always prioritized imports of Russian natural gas before sanctions against Russian aggression on its neighbours. And France is just the same. They also steal hospital equipment from other EU countries and they also happily stabs allies in the back - they sold exocet missiles to Argentina when France Nato and EU ally Britain was fighting a defensive war. So the best defence for the Baltics is their own armies and Nato (USA).
