If it wasn't in NATO or the EU, Russia would've already invaded by now, that's obvious enough. But they are in NATO and the EU, so they appear to be safe. Russ

If it wasn't in NATO or the EU, Russia would've already invaded by now, that's obvious enough.
But they are in NATO and the EU, so they appear to be safe. Russia invading Estonia would give the US and other NATO powers effective free license to start hurling missiles themselves (instead of just handing them to Ukraine).

- TulliusCicero 4y agoThere's already NATO troops in Estonia, the US has a bunch of troops relatively nearby in Poland, and when Russia invaded Ukraine recently, the US knew months ahead of time. Given that the US is in a military alliance with Estonia, Russia won't dare invade in the first place.
