International Business Times: Juscelino Colares, the Schott-van den Eynden Professor of Law, said Russia isn’t in a position to take on NATO. “Russia’s military could hardly be ready for an attack on any NATO country without risking a major humiliating and disabling defeat,” Colares said. “Other than threats of using nuclear war or firing a new generation of hard-to-defend missiles, Russia’s depleted military also has a big morale problem that would only get worse should Putin decide on an expanded campaign against one of Ukraine’s neighboring NATO countries.”
