Top NATO soldier sees no indications of Russian attack on the Baltic states

Despite the tensions surrounding Ukraine, Rob Bauer, chairman of NATO’s military committee, currently sees no indications of a Russian attack on the Baltic states. “We see no indications to date, we do not expect a Russian attack on NATO territory, either directly or via Belarus,” he said on Monday during a visit to Lithuania, BNS news agency reported. The mobilization of Russian soldiers is seen militarily as a “combination of possibilities,” according to Bauer, who holds the highest military office in NATO.
