The Russian Mindset and Where it Comes From - Historian Sir Antony Beevor
"I remember predicting there that the possibility that perhaps the role of armies in the future are simply going to be to prevent mass immigration."
Antony Beevor revealed he predicted in a 1990 book that future armies would primarily function to prevent mass immigration rather than traditional combat. He connected this forecast to current environmental disasters and water wars driving displacement, arguing Europe cannot serve as a lifeboat for climate refugees and conflict-driven migration.
