Russian MP’s Big Claim: Putin Planning to Attack NATO's Underbelly? | Vantage with Palki Sharma

A Russian MP has claimed that Putin could order Wagner fighters to attack the land bridge between Belarus and Russian-held Kaliningrad. The land bridge - called Suwalki corridor - is part of NATO territory and could trigger article 5 of collective defence. Will Putin risk NATO's wrath and attack this corridor? Why is it called the alliance's underbelly? Palki Sharma tells you.

Kaliningrad is the soft underbelly of russia. Not the other way around.

[JG-npqg]

Attacking NATO directly is not really a “soft underbelly”.

[lukasgza]

I'm from Poland. What this lady says sounds like a joke to me.
Only people thousands kilometers from here would believe in such "information ".

[deplorablenation]

Don't underestimate Poland, they are incredible fighters and well equipped. And they will not be alone

[keithw]

That’s one way to eliminate the Wagner group. Wagner vs NATO🤣🤣🤣

[KennethFears-fyvi]

This is the one who said sanctions never work.
😊😊😊😊😊

[gekolizzard]

Not even Putin is that crazy.
This is just more Russian mind gaming.

[bittertruth]

Pootin doesn’t want Wagner group anymore 😜

[nemono-won]

Of course not ... he can't even target Ukraine and they don't even represent 10% of NATO...😅😅😅

[HistoryonYouTube]

I am there right now. I doubt we shall be seeing any Russians any time soon.

[dallasyap]

Russia and Wagner Group are only signing their death warrants if they do this. America already has troops stationed in Poland. Not to forget that NATO is at the northern flank as well (Norway & Finland). America's Alaska is also close to Russia's eastern flank too.

[georgelabottum]

They should rename it, The Highway to Hell.

[richardvara]

No one is playing the world. Satellite shows images in real-time of every thing that moves under the sun.

[kellis]

I appreciate her reporting, straightforward, and non-biased political bullshit like CNN. She's not hiding anything or trying to cover up anything for specific political parties.

[btdtalso]

Wagner personnel should ask the few survivors of the Battle of Khasham about what happened the last time Wagner attacked US forces. Hundreds of them were reduced to limbless torsos in a matter of minutes.

[beatle]

“Soft underbelly” NATO recently stationed 100, 000 troops in that area. With Finland and Sweden in the fold, they also control the sea. NATO is strictly a self defense pact, Russia attacking it would be suicide.

[RavinderKaur]

There is more unclassified information avaible here in comments than in the news itself 😅😮

[TheBnary]

They would be defeated so quickly it would look like a proper “special military operation”. You know - one that lasts a few days and not two years.

[tennysonjohnson]

If Ukraine had what they wanted, Russia would be nothing much 😊

[jimmason]

Ah....Nato would wipe the Wagner group up in 2 days....no way would Russia commit to this unless they wanted to destroy Wagner itself....
