Russia's grand strategy is to foster domestic unrest and civil strife in other countries and leverage them as proxies. Their ground warfare game is mediocre, but they excel in information and electronic warfare.
- dukeyukey 3y agoAlthough the UK is less vulnerable than most Eastern/Central European countries. No Russian minorities to rile up, no local history of Russian anything (other than dissidents and wealth stashing) really.
- wolverine876 3y agoI agree, but arming (and alarming) the British public and preparing them for war won't protect them. In fact, it would seem to futher Russia's aims of fostering uncertainty and fear.
- anigbrowl 3y agoSeems to have worked out OK for the Ukrainians. It's better to be prepared than not.
- wolverine876 3y agoIt's a completely different situation. Ukraine was under threat from a powerful, threatening enemy on their border. The UK is not. The UK could also invest in desalinization plants and massive solar farms like some mideast countries, but it's a completely different situation. It's better not to use resources for more valuable endeavors - almost anything, really.
