- US General Alexus Grynkewich points to F-35 fighter jets and NATO’s larger number of modern destroyers and submarines.
- Grynkewich expects no large-scale Russian conventional attack on Europe and identifies sabotage as an alternative method.
- According to Grynkewich, NATO is stronger in the Baltics, while Russia has been weakened in Kaliningrad by the Ukraine war.
- Grynkewich called the alleged Russian-directed attempted attack on Leipzig Airport a transgression; success would probably have caused deaths.
If the attack had been successful, several fully fueled Antonovs would have gone up in the air, presumably there would have been casualties.— Alexus Grynkewich, United States four-star general, in an interview with Spiegel about the alleged Leipzig airport attack

Unfortunately, this is teetering on the edge of conflict, but giving in to evil is simply not an option.— Czech President Petr Pavel on the necessity for NATO to respond adequately to Russian violations.
