The next “target” of the Russian authorities after Ukraine is the Baltic states. The British newspaper The Sun writes about it.
According to the media, “if the West allows Russian President Vladimir Putin to occupy Ukraine, he may invade Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia.”
The tabloid notes that Russia has “used land grabs” before, alluding to Crimea and Georgia. And this was accompanied by “the establishment of key alliances with dictators in neighboring states to expand their influence,” the newspaper adds, and compares the actions of the Russian Federation with the actions of the Nazis before World War II and the annexation of Czechoslovakia.
The media writes that although Russia insists on the withdrawal of troops from its borders, US intelligence believes that the attack could happen “in the next few hours.”
Any further expansion of Putin into the Baltics could trigger World War III, warns former Commander-in-Chief of the Royal Navy, Admiral Lord West, quoted by the publication.
Recall that on February 21, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed decrees recognizing the independence of the DPR and LPR, as well as agreements with their heads on friendship, cooperation and mutual understanding. On February 22, Putin received permission from the Federation Council to use the armed forces abroad. At the same time, the President of Ukraine announced the conscription of reservists for military service in connection with a “special period for the country.” The United States, Great Britain and the European Union imposed sanctions against Russia. Japan also joined them.
