    Ultimately, NATO can smash through any block that Russia attempts and can defeat Russia in detail on Kaliningrad and Belorussian soil without resorting to nuclear weapons.
    What is interesting is that as Russia is more aggressive towards both Sweden and Finland the more their own citizens want to join NATO....something unheard of in the Cold War days as both remain totally neutral....
