NATO is considering 3 scenarios of incoming war with Russia:
Russia attacks Estonia 6 months after end of war in Ukraine. Assumption is that NATO will still be unprepared and won't send it's troops to die for Estonia. It means undermining Article 5 and with it, existence of NATO itself
Russia attacks Baltic countries in 2 years after war in Ukraine, if it's political leadership decides it can't postpone war any longer due to many factors (e.g. losing control over situation in Russia)
If nothing else happens Russia starts full scale war in Europe 5 years after end of war in Ukraine. Meantime Russia will do everything to weaken alliance between US and Europe, and between European countries
Scenarios with war not happening aren't considered any more. Currently everyone hopes for war in Ukraine going on as long as possible to give Europe more time for preparation (minimum 5 years, preferable 10 years). NATO generals assumes that due to Russian desperation, enemy will throw every body on the front. Even with huge casualties on Russian side, casualties will be very high for European standards as well. It will happen one way or another and it will be bloody.
Which one of 3 scenarios suit you best and why?
I personally hope for 5 years scenario. Even if it's the biggest probability of me dying, at least it's enough time to buy a house in Spain and send wife and children to safety on much better terms.
