Hmm, you don't think Russia could completely destabilize Europe and effectively bring us back to 1997, as Putin demanded before invading Ukraine? If Ukraine falls, Russia will get their hands on most of Ukraine’s weapons and know-how, in addition to all the combat experience they've gained over these years of war.
And they don't need to invade every country directly. They're excellent at hybrid operations—first ruining the political climate and internal discourse, then showing up with "brotherly help." Just look at what's happening in Slovakia now.
Honestly, I don't expect anything from the EU; it’s systematically impotent and totally incapable of swift, decisive action. On the other hand, I do think some kind of coalition of the willing could step up. And if not? Well, then we're fucked, and the Iron Curtain will come down again.
