I noticed this morning that the UK has sent 100 troops to Estonia to deter the Russians from any hanky panky on the border there. Of course, it's more of a political move than a military one, they could not do anything about an advancing Russian force. But, if NATO soldiers were harmed, that would mean the whole of Europe getting involved, plus America.
But would it?
Trump has been vociferous lately about the lack of money that other NATO members pay in, and he flatly refused to shake hands with Merkel yesterday.
Add in the inference of contact with the Russians during the presidential campaign and the claims of Russian interference in the election. Trump may just sit on his hands if anything kicked off in Eastern Europe, he has no fondness, even interest, in anything other than America.


Just a thought....... that's all.

Bet Rods can do better

As said you need top conspiracy theorist Rods2 on this,
He will no doubt have a theory, that relates to a long forgetting piece of history, or just blame the Russian bloke,

He did it eventually but but prefers to 'say hi' by grabbing women by the pussy. Apparently it is an old republican tradition.

Nothing wrong with that 
In Angela's case, though, he may have copped a handful of plums.

Almost certainly.

Gonads of Thatcheresque proportions.

The Donald looked slightly scared when Merkel suggested a handshake!

UK Forces are a political tripwire.

US more likely to come to the aid of Estonia than Latvia and Lithuania as they are the only Baltic country that now spends over 2% on defense and they also contributed to US forces in Afghanistan and took losses.

Trump imo and with his actions is owned financially by Russia and also likely with 'Kompromat' through his visits to Russia from the late 1980's onward. Russia might have 'their man' in the White House through the use of 'Active Measures' during the presidential election, but the US system of government means that Trumps powers are quite limited, as planned by the US founding fathers, and Russia does not own the GOP in Congress and the Senate where it is business as usual. It may well prove to be a Pyrrhic victory for Putin.

Will Russia attack the Baltics? Unlikely, as the risks v gain doesn't make any sense to me. Much more likely is an invasion of Belarus, where their dictator is often at odds with Putin, and had gone one step too far with his vagrancy tax, which is causing major unrest through demonstrations and some rioting. Kazakhstan is another more likely candidate, where Putin and their president are at political odds. For a predator like Putin it makes sense to go for the weakest targets with the biggest potential gain and with the least likely sanctions and fallout with the West.
