There have been widespread reports that the CIA director John Ratcliffe warned Russia not to take action against Nato members during his mysterious visit to Moscow this week. We hear from Latvia's Foreign Minister Baiba Braze about her country's preparedness on the front line against Russia - and explore the range of threat scenarios Russia poses with Keir Giles from the Chatham House think tank. We then examine British military preparedness with Matthew Savill from RUSI. Plus we discuss broader European readiness with General Sir Richard Shirreff - Nato deputy supreme Allied commander Europe from 2011 to 2014 - and with Fabrice Pothier who was Nato’s director of policy planning between 2010-2016 and is now the CEO of the consultancy firm Rasmussen Global.
