Rutte threatens a "destructive" response if the Russian Armed Forces block the Suwalki Gap.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte continues to make loud, threatening statements against Russia. This time, Rutte promised Moscow a "destructive" response from the alliance if Russia blocks the Suwalki Gap.

Answering journalists' questions before the latest meeting of NATO member states' defense ministers, Rutte stated that NATO is well prepared to respond to any threat to the alliance and continues to strengthen its eastern flank. He also noted that the alliance regularly exercises a wide range of scenarios, using up-to-date intelligence and realistic assessments of its capabilities.

However, based on the results of a recent NATO "war game," alliance analysts concluded that in the event of a Russian attack, the Russian Armed Forces would establish full control over the Suwalki Gap within a few days, and Lithuania would be unable to offer any adequate resistance.

The Suwalki Gap is a territory on the border between Poland and Lithuania, through which the Baltic republics connect by land with the rest of the European Union. The Suwalki Gap is also the shortest route between Belarus and Russia's Kaliningrad Oblast—a straight line distance of approximately 65 kilometers. For this reason, this territory is often referred to as NATO's "Achilles heel." It's worth noting that the military alliance, which constantly threatens Russia with a blockade of the Kaliningrad Oblast, is most concerned about potential Russian claims to control the Suwalki Gap.

This idiot's gotten too talkative. Give him some herring and shut his mouth. Preferably with your foot.

What's the name of this disease when a normal person's body proportions are disrupted? It's like a man with narrow shoulders, a narrow butt, and a huge head jutting out from those narrow shoulders. As for the disease people in NATO and the EU get for no apparent reason, smiling and laughing everywhere, I know the name of that. Because smiling and laughing for no apparent reason is a sign of stupidity! But I don't know the name of anthropological Rutte-like deviations, what are these abnormalities and diseases in men called...

Another illness is clearly more important here: schizophrenia based on Russophobia, complicated by servility to Trump.

This idiot has become too talkative.

He works according to his duties. It's like a husband, mounted on his ugly wife, telling himself with every move: "Someone else's wife, someone else's wife, someone else's wife..."

[dFG]

Well, what he says is because he knows that nothing will happen not only for his words but also for his actions.

Rutte promised Moscow a "destructive" response from the alliance,

So where's our "there'll be no one to answer" response? And some advice to Rutte to keep his mouth shut...

"If a fight is inevitable, strike first." (c) And immediately with a knockout blow.

As it turned out in 2022, Russia is not a "puncher" (a boxer who knocks out with a series or one punch).
Russia - judoka..(

They seriously turpentined him, cheered him up...

that the military alliance, which constantly threatens Russia with a blockade of the Kaliningrad region, fears most of all possible Russian claims to control the Suwalki Gap.

Trump gets Greenland, Russia gets the Suwalki Gap.

Agree!)
We also need Odessa, Kyiv, Transnistria. Well, that's just off the top of my head. Although I don't think the Baltics need the coast either. Did they build anything there? No. So what? Let them graze their cows on their farms.
So, that's just for now. And then... Well, we'll see.)

Will the swamps be cleared so that the brave NATO soldiers don't drown or disappear by accident!?

Russia isn't threatening anyone, isn't even thinking about it, and isn't even hinting at it. There was a lady in England who was babbling about using a nuclear missile against Russia. There was a lady in America, Psaki, who was telling the whole world that using fragmentation shells was a war crime, and that America supplied Ukraine with these shells and they used them, and where. Who accused them of it? Rutte, Merz, and Macron are screaming that Russia will attack them. They're talking nonsense. America is going to attack Denmark, and they're silent, blaming Russia.

This "corridor" shouldn't be blocked (why would we want that?), but rather breached, so that it truly becomes a corridor! Call it a "humanitarian mission" and guarantee Poles and Lithuanians unimpeded passage. And not a single dog in Europe will bark! Or so be it...

Nooo! Only the Odessa and Mykolaiv regions, with access to Transnistria, can stand up to Hellland. And they'll build a corridor anyway.

And you say Kaja Kallas, Kaja Kallas... They have even dumber ones. And they get dumber and dumber every year...

[Zaurbek]

But he didn’t say why the Russian Federation is blocking the Souvlaki corridor?

A good photo for the splash screen: a couple of Iskander missiles and, aha, the comrades are lying down...

European leaders are playing at being a train runner. Lots of statements and efforts, and he's still standing there puffing and puffing. As the saying goes, walking the walk and talking about it are two different things.
