Can NATO defeat Russia without US help — expert analysis

NATO is now much stronger than Russia

In the event of the US withdrawal from the Alliance, NATO countries will still have a powerful military potential that can protect them during a possible war with Russia. Turkey and its decisions in this context can play one of the main roles.

Points of attention

  • Austrian military expert Gustav Gressel's warning about Russia potentially having more soldiers reveals a concerning factor in the scenario of a NATO-Russia conflict.
  • Analysis of the numerical discrepancies in manpower, tanks, fighter jets, and artillery between NATO countries and Russia showcases the Alliance's superiority.

NATO is now much stronger than Russia

What is important to understand is that the armies of NATO member countries number over 2 million soldiers, while the aggressor countries of the Russian Federation currently have half the number of personnel.

As for tanks, the Alliance has about 6,700 of them, and Putin can only use 2,900.

Europeans have over 2,300 fighter jets in service, while Russia has slightly less than 1,400. The quantitative difference is especially large in artillery: European NATO countries have over 15,400 guns at their disposal, while the Russian Federation has 6,090.

Austrian military expert Gustav Gressel made a statement on this matter.

He warned that Russia may have more soldiers than is currently known.

According to experts, in the event of a war between NATO and Russia, Turkey may refuse to participate and provide military assistance due to its proximity to Moscow.

In this case, the Europeans' resources will be significantly reduced, as Turkey provides almost a quarter of the soldiers, over a third of the battle tanks, and almost 18% of the artillery.

Official Kyiv will ask the American authorities to change the proposed agreement on minerals, since in its current version it is disadvantageous for Ukraine and will harm its accession to the EU.

Points of attention

  • The negotiation process is ongoing, with Kyiv actively pushing for amendments that align with its strategic objectives.
  • The outcome of the negotiations could have significant implications for Ukraine's economic ties with the US and its geopolitical positioning.

The subsoil agreement is still under discussion

According to Bloomberg insiders, the team of Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky will ask the United States to make changes to the new economic agreement proposed by the Donald Trump administration.

First of all, Kyiv wants Washington to promise to increase American investment.

Anonymous sources claim that on March 28, Ukrainian officials held a video call with American colleagues, including lawyers.

This time, the Ukrainian side wanted to hear clarifications regarding the latest draft agreement.

According to another Bloomberg insider, Donald Trump's team did not object to the concerns voiced by Kyiv, especially regarding the potential conflict of the agreement with Ukraine's goals for EU membership.

According to the Ukrainian side, this indicates that the White House may be open to discussing changes.
