We need to be ready for war with Putin, Romania’s top general says

Gheorghiță Vlad issued a stark warning about the state of the nation’s army, calling for immediate action.

Romania isn't prepared for a potential war with Russia and it needs to brace, the country's defense chief said.

Gheorghiță Vlad, chief of defense of Romania, said, "Yes, the population of Romania, like the entire population of the European Union, of Europe, must be concerned," in an interview with Europa Liberă România published Thursday.

"If he wins in Ukraine, the main target will be the Republic of Moldova. We will witness tensions in the Western Balkans," the Romanian general added. "I am more than convinced that President Putin's policy will escalate in the near future."
