The response needs to be measured and well thought out.

Increase of NATO reaction forces in Baltics, along the Polish-Russian and Polish Belarussian borders, possible training exercises in the areas to aggravate Russian forces more, and increase in the types of arms provided to Ukraine like ATACMS/fighter jets.
Russia has been pulling forces off NATO borders for troops to fight in Ukraine and there are minimal Russian troops along the Baltics and Poland atm. Despite what Russian internal propaganda claims, Russian leadership knows NATO is not an offensive threat. Substantially increase NATO forces in the area would change that perception and fix Russian force positions and deprive Russia using those forces in Ukraine to attack more civilians.
