Can Russia DEFEAT the combined strength of NATO? Will the MILITARY alliance overcome Russian might?
Russia has threatened massive retaliation after Ukraine destroyed 40 of its bombers in the daring Op ‘Spider’s Web’.
With France, the UK, and Germany vowing to defend Ukraine, any Russian strike could trigger NATO’s Article 5—turning a regional conflict into World War III.
This explainer compares the military strength of Russia and NATO across budget, personnel, air/naval power, and nuclear capabilities.
While NATO holds a clear edge overall, Russia’s unmatched nuclear arsenal makes global escalation a terrifying possibility.

Ukraine's drone revolution is turning the tide of war. Along a 20 km “kill zone” near the frontline, kamikaze, surveillance, and bomber UAVs swarm the skies, making Russia's traditional advantages of tanks, artillery, and manpower nearly obsolete.
Ukrainian commanders say drones now account for over 70% of successful strikes on Russian forces. Meanwhile, Russia adapts with new tactics—sending small groups on quad bikes to bait fire and launch counter-drone strikes. With European support rising and U.S. aid shifting under Trump’s NATO-based weapons plan, Ukraine banks on domestically produced long-range drones to hold ground and retaliate deep into Russia. The battlefield is no longer just about artillery—it's a race of innovation and aerial dominance

In a dramatic geopolitical shift, Russia has withdrawn from a long-standing military cooperation agreement with Germany, originally signed in 1996. Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin's move follows a cascade of sanctions from Western allies and Germany’s support for Ukraine. Russia's Foreign Ministry labeled Berlin's stance as "openly hostile" and accused Germany of pursuing aggressive militaristic policies.
The collapse of this bilateral framework underscores Moscow's pivot toward nations like North Korea, Iran, and China. In recent weeks, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un—who pledged unconditional support for Russia’s war—and Iranian officials during the BRICS summit. Meanwhile, President Putin hinted at retaliatory arming of regions to strike Western targets. As the West distances itself from Moscow, Russia deepens its ties with fellow sanctioned states, signaling a bold new strategic alignment.

On July 17, Ukrainian troops raised national flags in the eastern villages of Yalta and Voskresenka, located near the Donetsk-Dnipropetrovsk border—territories Russia had already claimed to have captured.
Fighters from the 31st Separate Mechanized Brigade and the 505th Separate Marine Battalion quietly entered these so-called “occupied” areas and planted the Ukrainian flag, directly challenging Moscow’s narrative of battlefield success.
Footage released by Ukraine’s 20th Corps shows the flag-raising moments and FPV drone strikes targeting Russian positions. While Russian propaganda reports daily advances, Ukrainian forces are proving that the front lines remain fluid, contested, and fiercely defended.

On the night of July 17–18, Russia launched a deadly wave of attacks across Ukraine, striking the Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhzhia oblasts with drones and other weapons. At least two civilians were killed and 11 injured in the Kamianske district of Dnipropetrovsk, where homes, a school, a shop, and cars were damaged.

German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius has issued a stark warning to Moscow, declaring German troops are “ready to Kill Russian soldiers” if Russia attacks any NATO member. Speaking in Lithuania, Pistorius emphasized Germany’s duty to defend NATO’s eastern flank and said the Bundeswehr is shifting from deterrence to combat readiness. Citing Russia as an existential threat, he called for increased NATO presence in Eastern Europe. Berlin’s new strategic posture reflects a major departure from post-WWII restraint amid fears of a full-scale NATO-Russia conflict.

A shocking report reveals that Donald Trump views Ukrainian President Zelensky as a key obstacle to peace in the Russia-Ukraine war. While criticizing Putin’s actions, Trump reportedly prefers negotiating with Moscow over Kyiv, believing Zelensky “gambles with World War III.” Sources suggest Trump holds deep animosity toward Zelensky, despite claiming Putin only offers “bullsh*t” in talks. The revelations, backed by reports from Financial Times and NYT, have sparked global concern over Trump’s stance ahead of a possible return to power.

In their first call since the Ukraine war began, Russian President Vladimir Putin confronted French President Emmanuel Macron over Western involvement in the conflict. Putin blamed NATO expansion and years of Western military support for turning Ukraine into an “anti-Russia bridgehead.” He warned Macron that any French troops in Ukraine would be seen as legitimate targets, risking escalation to World War III. Putin reaffirmed Russia’s terms for peace, insisting any resolution must reflect battlefield realities and end Western interference.

Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has issued a stark warning: Ukraine joining NATO could spark a global war with Russia. Echoing Putin’s recent threats, Orbán says NATO expansion is a direct risk to peace in Europe. Hungary's foreign minister reinforced this stance, calling Ukraine's membership “impossible.” As NATO leaders push for more defense spending to counter Russia, divisions within the alliance deepen. While Europe arms up, Hungary distances itself—fearing the next move could ignite World War 3.

The Muslim World League has strongly condemned Iran’s strikes on U.S. bases in Qatar, calling them a blatant violation of Islamic values. This rare rebuke underscores Iran’s deepening isolation within the Muslim world amid its war against the U.S. and Israel. No Islamic nation has come to Iran’s aid—militarily or diplomatically. Long criticized for its expansionist policies and use of proxies, Iran now finds itself increasingly abandoned as regional powers step back, signaling a collapse of strategic tolerance.

Germany has announced it will soon supply Ukraine with new long-range missile systems, but not the Taurus cruise missiles that Kyiv has long sought. Despite previous speculation, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius confirmed that Taurus missiles—capable of striking targets up to 500 km away—will not be sent. Instead, Germany is providing Patriot air defense systems purchased from the U.S. Chancellor Friedrich Merz emphasized that diplomatic avenues with Russia are "exhausted" and vowed to counter what he called a “criminal regime.”
