Rate’s silence about NATO’s possible position in relation to Russia at the Future Coalition Summit

At a press conference today (Thursday), NATO Foreign Ministers in Turkey were asked by NATO Secretary -General Mark Routeh whether Russia would be the most important threat to the entire coalition in the final statement of the NATO summit to be held in the Hague month. But he refused to answer the question.

“Well, it is clear that in the strategic concept of Washington and at every press conference we repeat that Russia is a long -term threat,” Route said. I expect the NATO summit in The Hague to really focus on defense industrial production. To make sure there is money, there are products, focusing on Ukraine.

He continued: “And then exactly (it is clear) what the conclusions of the statement will be. We’ll see what the best way to do this.

Russia has highlighted NATO’s unprecedented activities near the western borders in recent years, according to Ria Novosti. Moscow has repeatedly expressed concern about the increase in the coalition forces in Europe.

The Kremlin has repeatedly said that Russia does not threaten anyone, but he will not ignore actions that are potentially dangerous to its interests.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said in an interview with prominent American journalist Tucker Carlson in 2007 that Moscow would not attack NATO. Putin said Western politicians are magnifying the threat of Russia to divert people’s attention from internal problems.

Rate emphasized that the NATO’s foreign ministers have repeated our full support for President Trump’s immediate efforts to end the war fairly and sustainable as soon as possible. This is the priority that we all adhere to.

NATO Secretary -General said Ukraine is ready to negotiate for peace, but now it is responsible for Moscow to respond significantly to Kiev’s desire. Ukraine is clearly ready to play, but this ball is now on the Russian pitch. The Russians are now sending a low -level delegation and not taking the opportunity that the President (Walodimir) has provided. I am willing to sit down with Putin as soon as we set up a ceasefire, we are willing to negotiate for a peace agreement. ”

Rate reiterated: Any future agreement on Ukraine must be valid and sustainable and Learn from the failure of past agreements. It must be stable. It must be durable. We cannot repeat what happened in the years 4-5, with the agreement of Minsk (over the conflict in eastern Ukraine), an agreement that was essentially challenged when the essence was not dry.

He also emphasized the importance of international coordination and praised the increase in the number of Ukraine support initiatives, including the “volunteer coalition”, which includes Turkey.

Route emphasized that this alliance is on the right path; However, he again emphasized that spending 2 % of the GDP of each member “is not enough.”

“Our main focus was on increasing defense costs,” he said in an explanation of the meeting. “This is essential for achieving the goals of the capability that allies will soon agree on, and to ensure that the unity is ready to face any threats and challenges.” “It will also help guarantee a fair division of responsibility between allies and we are on the right path.” “We know that we will need more investment in our basic military requirements as well as wider defense investments, including infrastructure, including resilience,” he said. Route said that NATO allies will agree on a new and ambitious goal at the Hague in late June. He noted that such a goal may be about the main defense costs as well as defense -related investments.
