- guard-of-terra 10y agoI am Russian and nationalistic and I can tell you that there's enough low hanging fruits around Russia who are not in NATO. So weak EU might certainly lead to attemts at picking those fruit.
- duncanawoods 10y agoWhy? There is no EU based military coordination. Trade war EU, shooting war NATO. Balance of power games like missile shields in border states are in NATO's purview.
- guard-of-terra 10y agoI use "Weak EU" in the meaning of "dysfunctional states". If and when a large subset of NATO states are dysfunctional, it will definitely create opportunities. It's like with rot - rotten things don't stay put they spread rot around.
