Exploring the Role Nuclear Weapons Could Play in Deterring Russian Threats to the Baltic States

Paul K Davis,J Michael Gilmore,David R Frelinger,Edward Geist,Christopher K Gilmore

Despite its global advantages, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)‘s current deterrent posture in the Baltic states is militarily weak and generally questionable. A Russian invasion there would almost surely capture some or all of those states’ capital cities within a few days, presenting NATO with a fait accompli. This report examines what role nonstrategic nuclear weapons could play in deterring such an invasion.
