    I think it can be for two things at once. Definetly more for show, but increases annoyance/makes a possible invasion more annoying.

    Obviously I imagine they have a way to blow up the bridge too which sounds far more effective.

        Would make sense that main invasion would be from the east, but a second front may be opened to try and collapse the “enemy” who would likely be stretched thin.

          If Russia tries to go to war with NATO, Kaliningrad is instantly blockaded and defeated. Russia can hide nothing in Kaliningrad

            Unless Trump withdraws, Russian war would have to be won in a week. By the time american logistical supplies and reinforcements start coming in strong, Russia is fucked.

                Just coming back to this, Russia has the capacity to produce multiple times the amount of shells than the entirety of europe can put together.

                  Are we talking about the same Russia that is currently struggling to capture a single more square mile in Ukraine? Or are we talking about some mythological Russia of yore
