Kasparov: Putin may test NATO with Baltic incursion after elections
Garry Kasparov warns Putin is unlikely to accept a peace deal and may escalate by probing a Baltic incursion into Latvia or Estonia to test NATO’s response after Russia’s September elections; he argues Moscow could achieve its aims with a limited move rather than a full invasion and urges Europe to harden sanctions, ban tourist visas, and back a Ukrainian victory to undermine the Kremlin.
