NATO Urged to Prepare for Russian Move | US News

U.S. Ambassador to NATO Matt Whitaker is sounding the alarm, urging allies to accelerate defense spending and weapons production as intelligence suggests Russia could launch a limited attack on NATO within years—not decades. With Russia now on a wartime footing and outpacing NATO in key areas like cruise missiles, Whitaker warns preparedness is non-negotiable: deterrence means making any strike too costly. While Moscow denies any intent to attack NATO and President Trump dismisses the threat, former denials before Ukraine’s invasion have left some officials, like Poland’s Foreign Minister, pushing for faster action. The message is clear: rebuild stockpiles and capacity now—before Russia’s war economy solidifies—to ensure deterrence remains effective while Moscow stays focused on its own battlefield.
