Article 5 of NATO treaty does not mean automatic military response in case of Russia?s attack, - former head of NATO Military Committee Bauer

If Russia attacks one of the Baltic states, NATO's response will depend on the type of attack. If the attack is limited in scope and does not pose a direct threat to the territorial integrity of a member state, consultations will first take place among all members of the bloc. During these discussions, they will decide whether to start a war with Russia.
