The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Russia isn't really a threat to NATO anymore.

The one link I provided showed that, so long as the US remains in NATO. Also, so long as Putin continues his war, which is draining Russian military assets and resources.**

But countries like Poland still need to be wary, which is why they are sending so much aid to Ukraine.

China is a threat in the SCS region, but that is far away from Europe. You could argue they would need navies for that, and Britain does have one. The others, mostly for coastal defense (like Sweden's "navy"). The Chinese army is no threat to Europe.



**Assuming he doesn't go nuclear...then Russia is a threat to everyone, but it would be suicide (MAD).
