This is false. I mean, Putin & cronies could certainly try, but he would fail massively. Here's why.

Poland has a standing army that is very strong, and following that Russia killed many senior Polish government members ten years ago, they are not desiring friendly relations with Russia any time soon.

Finland also has a sizeable armed forces, are no friends of Russia, and many Finns are itching to turn the heads of many Russians into red giblets. They also had a lot of experience with that during the Winter War.

Most of Eastern Europe has over a century of bad experiences with Russian domineering and brutality. Many millions of Finns and Easterners would be happy to join a war to put Russia in their place after a century under the Russian boot.

If pressed into war, I'm fairly certain that Finland and Poland together could join forces, smash through Skt Peterburgh etc towards Moscow and eat the old piss-soaked dictator in Minsk as a snack along the way. It's too bad that the rivers would run red with the blood of Russian men and boys, but if you choose to be a fool for the Novy Tsar in Kreml for a few thousand Rubles per month, nobody can help you.

All of the Eastern Europe is arming up and readying themselves for the possibility of war with Russia, mostly with the exceptions of Hungary and Serbija that still remain foolish as to Russian intentions.

The weakest links in Europe are however in the West: Germany that are still shell shocked from that their twenty years of Wandel-durch-Handel didn't manage to turn Putin into a good boy, and secretly hoping that they won't have to fight, England which despite their early support for Ukraine are balancing a frail economy that is not ready for war, France that has with Macron been wobbly between playing the diplomat and the hawk, and Spain that would rather try to harvest point by being goid humanitarians by sanctioning Israel and being angry about what goes on over there, and hoping that rest of Europe will handle the Ukrane/Russia situation.

It's the Western Europe thats still half asleep thats the problem, not Eastern Europe.
