Many analysis of the period question if Czech troops could be used in a general attack on western Europe since they were more trained and deployed to prevent civil war and their colder relationship with the USSR since the crushing of the uprising in the 60's. It was also generally felt that all the Warsaw pact troops could not be deployed into western Europe without risking 'instability' in the USSR aligned nations of eastern Europe.
