GD_American posted:I could see Belarus/Poland getting us yanked into that war via Article 5 as much more likely. The North Atlantic Treaty is actually very weak on paper. Article 5 just says each party has to respond as they see fit. So a border skirmish can be easily brushed aside as having been dealt with, I think while maintaining NATO's deterrence regarding a larger war. Article 5 posted:The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in Europe or North America shall be considered an attack against them all and consequently they agree that, if such an armed attack occurs, each of them, in exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defence recognised by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, will assist the Party or Parties so attacked by taking forthwith, individually and in concert with the other Parties, such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force, to restore and maintain the security of the North Atlantic area.
