NATO Military Committee chair Dragone said the alliance is ready to respond to a possible Russian escalation on the eastern flank.
“The alliance is ready, the structure is ready, the soldiers… the weapons are ready […]. In case of an attack we know what to do,” he told reporters.
According to the admiral, NATO has “four thousand pages” of military plans to defend the eastern flank — from minimal-crisis scenarios to intervention on NATO territory. Three regional national defense plans were coordinated in 2023 year, after the Russian Federation’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
