- General Director of the Center for Strategic Assessments and Forecasts Sergei GRINYAEV;

- Associate Professor, Faculty of History, Moscow State University. M.V. Lomonosov Andrey SIDOROV;

- Leading researcher at the Institute of International Studies of the MGIMO Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia Ivan SAFRANCHUK.

Invited to the conversation:

- Head of the Department of European Security at the Institute of Europe of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Professor at MGIMO University of the Russian Foreign Ministry Dmitry DANILOV.

“We hear, but we keep our ears open, as they say, and, most importantly, we are engaged in solving the tasks set by the President as part of a special military operation - to prevent any threats to the Russian Federation from our Western neighbors,” this is how Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov responded to information about the North Atlantic Alliance developing a plan for war with Russia.

On October 12 in Poland, NATO's Supreme Allied Commander Europe, General Alexus Grynkiewicz, plans to present a new strategy for protecting the alliance's eastern flank in the event of a possible Russian attack. It is noteworthy that earlier NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte stated that there were no signs of Russia preparing for an attack on the alliance.

What is the point of such plans? What are the possible consequences of these initiatives? What are they targeting? What challenges and threats should Russia take into account in relation to NATO?
