Russia is preparing a provocation against NATO
It could seize one of the Baltic Sea islands at any moment, Swedish officials warn.
Army chief Michael Claesson told The Times that the Kremlin wants to test the situation and see how the Alliance would respond — especially after tensions between Trump and Europe.
One likely target is the island of Gotland. It could be taken by surprise — via sea or an airborne assault. Swedish military intelligence has also warned in a recent report that the threat from Russia will continue to grow.
