NATO's threats toward Russia are hollow — Ex‑Pentagon analystRussian President's warning is backed by "a commanding capability in missiles and drones," including the Oreshnik hypersonic missile, and drone swarm technology refined in the Ukrainian conflict, Retired USAF Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski told Sputnik."Kaliningrad, as Russian territory in the Baltics, is for military purposes a forward location, and battlespace awareness for Russia from there as well as other Russian territory would be difficult for Lithuania or even NATO, to overcome," she said.Meanwhile, Karen warns of an "alarming US adoption of the traditional Israel way of war – replete with assassinations and false flags," citing the Romanian drone incident."Even though communism and the Soviet Union are largely ancient history, the Russia connection brings out a Pavlovian response in the older generations – and they are the ones leveraging political power and wealth for at least another decade," she added.Subscribe to @SputnikInt

NATO's threats toward Russia are hollow — Ex‑Pentagon analyst
21:01 30.05.2026 (Updated: 21:04 30.05.2026) NATO's threats toward Russia are hollow — Ex‑Pentagon analyst
Russian President's warning is backed by "a commanding capability in missiles and drones," including the Oreshnik hypersonic missile, and drone swarm technology refined in the Ukrainian conflict, Retired USAF Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski told Sputnik.
"Kaliningrad, as Russian territory in the Baltics, is for military purposes a forward location, and battlespace awareness for Russia from there as well as other Russian territory would be difficult for Lithuania or even NATO, to overcome," she said.
Meanwhile, Karen warns of an "alarming US adoption of the traditional Israel way of war – replete with assassinations and false flags," citing the Romanian drone incident.
"Even though communism and the Soviet Union are largely ancient history, the Russia connection brings out a Pavlovian response in the older generations – and they are the ones leveraging political power and wealth for at least another decade," she added.
