NATO chief shares surprising facts about Russian army changes since Ukraine war
NATOʼs top military expert gives new details about Russian land forces almost 3 years after Ukraine invasion. Forces grew in numbers but showed clear signs of decline in key areas
Admiral Rob Bauer from NATOʼs Military Committee gave an eye-opening update about Russian military status in Brussels today. Russian ground troops show some un-expected changes since their Ukraine operation started back in Feb-22
The size of Moscows land-based military grew larger than pre-invasion numbers; however the real-world combat readiness isnt what it used to be. “The quality of those forces has gone down“ — Bauer pointed out discussing both tech-equipment state and soldier know-how (which both need serious work)
The Dutch-born NATO chief shared his take on current risk levels: Russian forces dont present the same kind of danger as they did almost 3 years ago. This gives NATO countries a much-needed time-window; but its important to use it right and boost defense-industry spending
The Russians are not the same threat as in February 2022‚ so we have a bit of time to prepare ourselves
