NATO is vastly more powerful than Russia already, in terms of sheer military force. It's not even close. Funny how they're all scrambling to raise their military spending as if Russia is about to attack imminently. Which won't happen anyway if we're to believe in NATO's deterrent.
Unsurprisingly the money for this defence increase is obtained by reaching into the pockets of the poorest in society.
