Earlier this month, the Danish Defense Intelligence Service assessed the risk from Russia once its Ukraine war stops or freezes in place.
Russia could launch a local war against a bordering country within six months, a regional war in the Baltics within two years, and a large-scale attack on Europe within five years if the US does not get involved, according to a translation of the report from Politico.
"Russia is likely to be more willing to use military force in a regional war against one or more European NATO countries if it perceives NATO as militarily weakened or politically divided," according to the report, which was dated Feb. 9 and released Tuesday. "This is particularly true if Russia assesses that the US cannot or will not support the European NATO countries in a war with Russia."
