Finnish President Alexander Stubb has dismissed the likelihood of a Russian military attack on NATO territory, citing the alliance’s overwhelming deterrence capabilities and Moscow’s severe troop depletion in Ukraine. In an interview with the German newspaper Bild, Stubb stated that he sees no evidence to support recent warnings from the German Defense Ministry and the Bundeswehr that Russia could be prepared to attack NATO by 2029.JOIN US ON TELEGRAMFollow our coverage of the war on the @Kyivpost_official. “First of all, I have intelligence data. And secondly, we have a deterrent – and this deterrent is stronger than that of any other military power in the world,” Stubb said, noting that NATO’s defense relies on conventional armed forces, missiles, and nuclear weapons. “It makes no sense for any state in the world to test the resolve of this alliance.” The Finnish president characterized the current heightened rhetoric as a Russian “information war” designed to spread fear across Europe, prompting endless debates over potential escalation and nuclear threats. Stubb argued that Russia’s operational capacity is heavily constrained. He noted that the Russian military is currently losing between 30,000 and 35,000 soldiers per month in Ukraine while successfully recruiting only about 27,000. “So they have fewer and fewer soldiers in an increasingly difficult situation. This also makes an attack on another country highly unlikely. I just don’t see how they could suddenly mobilize forces for two fronts right now,” he stated.
