ISW Reveals Putin's Plans For NATO

Analysts pointed out an important nuance.

The aggressor country Russia may be making preparations for a new armed conflict. This is stated in a new report by the US Institute for the Study of War (ISW).

It is reported that the Russian Federation may attack one of the NATO member states. This conclusion was reached by analysts after analyzing US President Donald Trump's assessment of Kremlin dictator Vladimir Putin's ambitions.

Trump believes that Putin is not only interested in the territory of Ukraine. At the same time, the American president called it a mistake for Russia to invade Ukraine in 2022.

Background of these statements, ISW confirmed that Putin-led Russia is indeed preparing for a possible future confrontation with NATO. Analysts' assessments suggest that conditions are also being created for potential aggression against countries that were formerly part of the USSR but are now non-members of the Alliance.

An important nuance is that the Kremlin is using the same rhetoric regarding a possible attack on NATO countries as it did in 2022, prior to a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
