Pavel Zhebrivsky, head of the Donetsk Civil Military Administration (CAA), believes that if a "hybrid war" with Russia begins, the North Atlantic alliance will not be able to help its Baltic allies. "For Latvia or Lithuania, 2-3 hours or 6 hours will be enough for the occupation," - said Zhebrivsky on air "112. ua ".

According to the head of the Donetsk HGA, it was precisely the fear of an attack by the Russian army that caused the support of the Baltic States of Ukraine in the armed conflict in Donbass. "When will the NATO forces manage to come to the rescue? That's why Russia will already talk with them from the position of strength," Zhebrivsky. The theme of the mythical Russian threat is constantly exaggerated in the Baltic countries, RIA Novosti reminds.. Moscow has repeatedly stressed that Russia does not plan to "occupy" the Baltic states, but more and more armed forces and equipment of the Alliance are being drawn to Russian borders.
