Removed, manipulated headline.

Real headline:

“Long-range missiles strike civilian targets across Europe. Baltic states are invaded. AI-controlled tanks rule the battlefield. As NATO warns of Russian attack in 20 years, a terrifying prediction of how it will unfold”

Plus, Daily Mail? Really?

This is the best summary I could come up with:

And now, NATO countries are gearing up for one of their largest-ever drills, with 90,000 troops from all corners of the continent and the United States set to embark upon Herculean war games - a last-ditch effort to display their military might before Vladimir Putin and any other potential threats.

But although cyber warfare undoubtedly has the potential to destabilise NATO’s military efficacy, undermine its industrial capabilities and stoke discontent, nothing will replace what Cranny-Evans described as ‘conventional kinetic operations on the ground, in the air and at sea’.

Moscow could deploy submarines or submersibles to cut vital fibre optic undersea cables, dealing unprecedented damage and disruption to Western infrastructure, logistics and communications amid an escalation in future conflict.

But a scenario in which the Chinese Communist Party seizes such an opportunity to launch an invasion of Taiwan in an effort to bring the sovereign, self-governed island back under control - while NATO is focused on the threat from Moscow - is certainly a plausible one.

And given Beijing’s desire to consolidate access to the vast resources of the Arctic and secure shipping routes out of the bounds of Western control, it’s feasible that China could lend support to the Kremlin as it wages war with Europe.

Among many things, former US president Theodore Roosevelt is remembered for his popularisation of ‘Big Stick Diplomacy’ - the idea that cultivating a strong military power, and willingness to display it, is essential for safeguarding national interests and discouraging would-be foes from carrying out nefarious intentions.
