Russian President Vladimir Putin could potentially attack NATO within weeks, according to a series of new United States intelligence assessments.
These latest reports follow a number of similar recent warnings from NATO capitals, highlighting growing concerns within the alliance that Putin may be considering a dramatic escalation as he seeks to break the strategic deadlock in his faltering Ukraine invasion.
Trump has long claimed that the nation's capitol was a violent cesspool"and that his National Guard policy fixed it. New reporting disputes that.
The Post found what experts had long suspected"that the numbers Trump so often touted"an 88 to 92 percent decrease in crime and an 18 percent decrease in homicides"were due to a downward trend in crime that appeared long before the National Guard did.
Not only that, but the study notes an increase in assaults with a dangerous weapon.

"The current debate over a possible Russian attack on NATO reflects the alliance's failure to maintain credible deterrence against its far weaker adversary amid an unprecedented rise in tensions over the invasion of Ukraine.
On paper, at least, this makes little sense. After all, the power of the NATO alliance completely dwarfs Russia's much smaller military and economic potential.
In practice, however, it is increasingly apparent that Putin has managed to seize the initiative in this unequal confrontation by exploiting the West's crippling fear of escalation."
