Stephen Ganyard: ‘Direct Confrontation’ with NATO ‘A Bigger Bet’ than Putin Is Willing To Take at this Point

GANYARD: "I think what he’s going to do is make sure that people don’t want to call his bluff. So I think the real goal will be in the Ukraine; there’s less risk. There’s bigger payoff. The Russian people will buy it. But I think a bet, a direct confrontation with NATO at this point is a bigger bet than Mr. Putin will be willing to be taken."
