Quote: "At the end of the war in Ukraine, whatever it looks like, the Russian army will be stronger than it is today," Cavoli said.

He believes NATO should not be under any illusions about Russia's military strength.

"The Russian armed forces are learning, they are improving, they are applying the experience gained at war," Cavoli said.

He called on NATO to quickly prepare for this threat, because Russia will be an enemy with serious military potential and "clear intentions".

"That is why we must be prepared and need armed forces that can withstand it," Cavoli asserted. 

According to Cavoli, the Alliance's new defence plans, as well as the increased obligations for individual NATO members that result from them, should be implemented fast.

"When I say fast, I mean we have to be faster than the Russians," the general said.
