Have the baltics started hoarding arms in preparation for a possible invasion?
They have increased arms spending several times, as soon as they understood what the 2014 annexation of Crimea portends to them: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-10-19/baltics-states-have-doubled-arms-spending-since-putin-s-advance Now they prudently give a lot of arms to Ukraine, to prevent any possibility of Ruscist success.
Also why anything we can send to Ukraine now saves more lives and treasure down the road.
