Not now but they can in future. Even if Russia won't, Europe needs better defense while USA is willing to back away from NATO.
Europe is divided in many many smaller countries while Russia is one and huge. I'm sure you know how big are Lithuania and Latvia?
Yes, but NATO specifically requires almost all of Europe (and the US) to help defend an attacked member.
Russia invading any NATO country just isn't going to happen.

I meant it for when USA would back away from NATO.
I also don't think Russia wants to attack even a non NATO member but it sure doesn't want the extension of it to its borders.
The bone of contention between Ukraine and Russia wasn't only Ukraine willing to join NATO but the ego of Putin.
While Trump called Zelensky a dictator, he forgot that Putin is holding the Chair firmly for more than 2 decades now.
Okay let's end the debate and say Trump is looking forward to 'MAGA' so wants minerals from Ukraine and Putin would let it happen under his eyes! What better days than Russia and USA coming together.
I smell the rise of the same old USA that named peace to economic warfare.
