Die Welt citing a military simulation:

Russia could successfully invade Baltic states with army of just 15,000 troops

The German Wargaming Center concluded that NATO members would be incapable of reacting quickly to a Russian offensive

By the time Russian forces were already on Lithuanian soil, the US, Germany, and Poland would still be hesitating — failing to invoke NATO Article 5

The result: Russia could cut the Baltics off from Europe and seize control with a relatively small force
