Yes the more I think about Kaliningrad the more I like it. The Germans were there since the Teutonic Knights Christianised the local pagans in the 13th Century, and maybe before if we include the Goths etc. Longer than the Russians were in the Crimea I think. Yes cancel the Potsdam Agreement and march into Kaliningrad and rename it Konigsberg and see what Putin does.
I don't think it would be that hard. The Russians just have 11,000 troops and marines in the enclave with over 800 tanks, but the naval base, the battery of SS-21's and the squadrons of Su-27's and Su-24s and S-300 SAM's could be knocked out quickly.
