Description:
In this video we'll have a look on NATO's most vulnerable point. On a quick analysis we can quickly see that the Suwalki Gap or the Suwalki coridor is a point of an extrem strategic importance for NATO eastern flank.
If Russia would take controll of this tiny strip of land it will isolate the three baltic states: Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia from the rest of NATO and they will become an easy pray for the Russian Federation.
But we'll talk more about all of this in this video, so make sure you do not miss it.
Feel free to write your opinion about this in the commnets.
