Does the west threaten Russia's security? Do they have plans to invade Russia? Because that would be news to me.

It seems awfully defensive to me, especially coming from a country (Russia) that has been an aggressor for a long time, testing European defenses and readiness for a long time now. How often has the Russian air force intercepted European war planes?

Um.. I will respond in line with HN policy ( assume good faith ), but contingency plans do exist for various scenarios. Countries that do not have those are likely not going to be countries for long.
