Top German general: 'We must be ready for war (with Russia) in 5 years'

While the prospect of the war escalating to an all-out clash between the alliance and #Russia has so far been averted, there are concerns that the West has not truly accepted that it may still be a possibility.

Several #NATO commanders and other alliance leaders have warned in increasingly stark terms in recent months about the dangers of such a #war and what impact it could have across #Europe.

German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said in January that a war with Russia could occur within the next five to eight years, and a top German NATO general warned that Russian #missiles could likely target Germany in the event of such a conflict.
