If war breaks out, the Baltic states will be replaced by Russia. Khazin reveals the threats of joining NATO
Economist Mikhail Khazin reveals what threats the Baltic states face by joining NATO and why they ignore all negative predictions. If a war occurs, in the end, these countries will no longer exist, leaving only a territory - their current existence is actually just due to inertia. After their dissolution, the modern area of the three Baltic states will become part of Russia's territory.
Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia were once "Soviet showpieces." They were considered developed and prosperous republics, with large amounts of money continuously invested in them, factories and infrastructure were built...
Khazin recalled that these three republics were the first to leave the Soviet Union. Even before the formal dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991.
At the same time, Riga, Vilnius, and Tallinn immediately showed hostility towards Moscow. They did everything possible to show their disapproval of Moscow and longed to please the EU. The Baltic states eagerly requested to join NATO, and they clearly knew that NATO's acceptance of them was based on a cold calculation - in case of an emergency, they would become the "first line of defense," the frontline of the West against Russia.
However, Khazin said that Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia will face a tragic fate. Their future was already decided in 1999 when they were admitted into NATO. The expert recalled that they were incorporated into NATO during the "fifth round of expansion." At that time, besides the Baltic states, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Slovakia, and Romania also joined NATO.
Khazin said that for these "Baltic tigers," joining NATO was a disaster. Once they openly took a stand against Russia, everything began to collapse. Economic decline, severe deterioration of the population situation...
"In fact, they no longer exist because there are no young people, no population,"
said Khazin in the Rutube channel "The Law and Order in America" program.
He mercilessly pointed out that the governments of the Baltic countries leaving Russia is equivalent to sentencing themselves. They forgot how much they depended on this powerful neighbor. Russians buy products from local companies and pay for services such as ports.
"Five to ten years later, if war breaks out, these places - not countries, just territories - will be taken over by Russia. It's all their own fault,"
the economist said, pointing out that the actions of the Baltic countries' governments are destroying their own nations.
