Yes, all of Europe disarmed after WW2. We are ripe for the taking and are scrambling to get our shit back together.

We are not that disarmed, plus Russia can't even win over Ukraine and now they are expected to wage a full war against NATO?

France has a nuclear umbrella, if I remember correctly they're the only one in the EU that does, but Britain and Canada are both part of NATO so they contribute to the deterrent.

Also, russia would get wrecked in Poland and the Baltics.

Sorry, no sarcasm here today. Check back after the next presidential election...if there ever is one.
