The General Inspector of the Armed Forces of Germany, Karsten Brouer, in his recent statement emphasized the seriousness of the threat posed by the Russian Federation for the European Union and its partners in NATO.
According to him, in the next five years the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will be so equipped with materials and personnel that they can attack NATO territory.
For five to eight years, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will be equipped with materials and personnel, which will make NATO offensive.
“The Russian army adds from 1000 to 1500 additional tanks annually. The five largest NATO member states have only half of them in the warehouse, ”Karsten Brouer said.
The general added that it is necessary to prepare for the attack of the Russian Federation in the next five years.
“My work is to think about such the worst scenario. For the Bundesver, this means that we must be ready for this opportunity five years later. This is the only way we can restrain people, ”Brouer stressed.
