A former high-ranking German general, 65-year-old Hans-Lothar said Domreze, that Russia will not attack the Baltic States, because there is no oil, and the Baltic Sea countries have already.
I do not think, that the Russians would attack the Baltics. From the military-technical point of view, they can do it, because it is a small country. But why? There's no oil, the Baltic Sea, Russia has - he said in an interview with Deutsche Welle.
According to him, losses in the event of an attack on the Baltic countries can be huge, Besides, there is a risk of World War III.
I do not think, President Vladimir Putin and his advisors like this idea. Therefore there, in the Baltic States, the situation is stable - he said.
Domreze added, what, despite the situation in Ukraine, optimistic and believes, that NATO and the West will be able to reach a constructive dialogue with Russia.
