Elbridge Colby, former deputy assistant secretary of defense for strategy and force development under ex-President Donald Trump’s administration, took to X, formerly Twitter on Thursday, saying, “We shouldn’t take Putin at his word. Far from it. I believe Russia is a serious threat to Eastern NATO.”

Continuing, Colby said, “But it is noteworthy that Moscow eschews aggressive action against NATO while China publicly reserves the right to military action against Taiwan.”
