NATO has publicly disclosed its concept for responding to a Russian attack on a member state for the first time, infohub.kz reports.
According to NUR.KZ, citing Bild, the document, titled "Theory of Victory," was presented by General Alexus Grynkewich, Supreme Allied Commander Europe, at a security forum in Warsaw. He said the plan calls for "defeating the enemy in three stages."
The first stage is called Block: alliance forces must halt the initial attack. If the enemy continues its advance, NATO will move to the second stage, Blunt, aimed at depriving the advancing troops of the ability to push further.
The third stage, Break, envisions destroying not only the attacking units but also the entire military system supporting them. To achieve this, the alliance plans to cut supply lines, disable command systems, and strip the attacking forces of combat capability. That is how the publication described the alliance's plan, citing Grynkewich.
NATO has been developing this concept for several years, but given recent events, the alliance's leadership decided to present it publicly for the first time.
Earlier, media reported that NATO was allegedly developing a plan to repel a possible Russian attack using drones and artificial intelligence. After this information emerged, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov commented on the situation.
