Europe Wonders Who’s Next Russia Target

“For some European countries watching Russia’s brutal war in Ukraine, there are fears that they could be next,” the AP reports.

“Western officials say the most vulnerable could be those who aren’t members of NATO or the European Union, and thus alone and unprotected — including Ukraine’s neighbor Moldova and Russia’s neighbor Georgia, both of them formerly part of the Soviet Union — along with the Balkan states of Bosnia and Kosovo.”

“But analysts warn that even NATO members could be at risk, such as Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania on Russia’s doorstep, as well as Montenegro, either from Moscow’s direct military intervention or attempts at political destabilization.”

The Economist: “Moldova, which is not a member of either NATO or the European Union, is in a state of deep anxiety.”
