Putin Threatens to Invade Poland, Romania & the Baltic States

Putin Threatens to Invade
Poland, Romania & the Baltic States

 Justin Huggler, Berlin 

President Vladimir Putin privately threatened to invade Poland, Romania and the Baltic States, according to a record of a conversation with his Ukrainian counterpart.

"If I wanted, in two days I could have Russian troops not only in Kiev, but also in Riga, Vilnius, Tallinn, Warsaw and Bucharest," Mr. Putin allegedly told President Petro Poroshenko of Ukraine, reported Süddeutsche Zeitung, a German newspaper.

If true, this would be the first time that Mr. Putin has threatened to invade NATO or EU members. Any threat to send Russian troops into the capitals of Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Poland and Romania would cause grave alarm among Western leaders.

If Mr. Putin were to act on this, Britain could find itself at war with Russia. All five countries mentioned in this alleged conversation are members of both the EU and NATO. They are covered by the security guarantee in Article V of NATO's founding treaty, which states that "an attack on one is an attack on all." In a speech in Tallinn earlier this month, President Barack Obama confirmed NATO's commitment to this doctrine.

The Baltic States are particularly nervous about Russian intentions, and Obama sought to reassure them with his speech in Tallinn earlier this month.

 
Mr. Putin's alleged threat bears similarities to remarks he made to Mr.José Manuel Barroso, the president of the European Commission, where he warned: "If I want to, I can take Kiev in two weeks."

Süddeutsche Zeitung claims to have seen an European Union memorandum of a meeting between Mr. Barroso and Mr. Poroshenko in Kiev last week, during which the latter is said to have described Mr. Putin's threat.

The Russian president made these remarks in a series of telephone conversations with Mr. Poroshenko over the current ceasefire in eastern Ukraine.

Mr. Putin also warned Mr. Poroshenko not to put too much faith in the EU, saying that Russia could exert its influence and raise a "blocking minority" among member States.

 
On Tuesday, Ukraine ratified a historic Association Agreement with the EU, placing the country on the path towards eventual EU membership. It was the refusal of the former president, Mr. Viktor Yanukovych, to sign this agreement last year that triggered the Ukraine crisis.

The EU recently announced further sanctions against Russia, focusing on the energy, financial and arms sectors. But there have been divisions among member States over sanctions, with many worried about the impact on their own economies.

"If you ever ask again 'Who will come to help?' you'll know the answer: the NATO alliance, including the armed forces of the United States of America," he said. "We'll be here for Estonia. We will be here for Latvia. We will be here for Lithuania."

Mr. Poroshenko is the only source for Mr. Putin's alleged latest threat, and there is concern that he could be motivated to exaggerate in order to strengthen EU and NATO support for Ukraine.

The European Commission refused to confirm or deny whether Mr. Barroso had such a conversation with Mr. Poroshenko. "We will not conduct diplomacy in the press or discuss extracts from confidential conversations," said Mr. Pia Ahrenkilde Hansen, the Commission spokesperson. "What matters to the EU and the Commission is to contribute to lasting peace, stability and prosperity in Ukraine."

  2. WWIII is indeed coming and it will certainly involve Russia. The west is instigating it and Put in is merely the latest boogeyman as they prepare, stupidly and insanely, to try to take out another country...in this case a nuclear armed Russia. The above news report is just one example of the controlled western media's propaganda war. Check out StormCloudsGathering on youtube for a secular view of the Geopolitics of it all.

    That this is happening at the same time as what's transpiring within Holy Mother Church should cause you to grip that rosary a little tighter. Things are converging.

  3. Many prophecies talk about a Russian invasion of Western Europe...and especially Italy..At Garabandal the Blessed Mother told Conchita....that Conchita ,one of the visionaries that all the events that are told to occur when "communism comes back again"...and that Russia would suddenly overwhelm a large part of the free world some day.... Scary...but there are other blessed souls who have said so..Sister Aiello.....writes of Russia flying their flag over the Vatican...and in the book Mary's Triumph...(forget the visionary)but she was told the same thing... She was a "spiritual child of Padre Pio". In short very scary stuff!
