France in the event of war with Russia faces a quick defeat. Experts of the American Analytical Center Rand came to this conclusion, writes with reference to Forbes Lenta.ru.
It is argued that the armed forces of the fifth republic do not possess sufficient human reserves and intersections of ammunition for a long confrontation with Russia. The advantages of the French army called modern weapons, well-trained special forces units, as well as the presence of nuclear weapons. The US will be able to reject the situation if they come to resist Paris on time, summarizes the Rand.
The politicians and military of many European states spoke about the war with Russia. The last case in this row was the approval of the Armed Forces of the Defense of Estonia General Lieutenant Martin Herma, which was expected to attack Russia in the republic soon. According to his version, a similar attack may be “a limited time invasion of military forces, which will be accompanied by other elements of the hybrid war.”
