The Alliance poses no threat to the Russian capital and is a defensive Alliance, assured NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg.
"NATO poses no threat to the Russian Federation. NATO is a defensive Alliance, and nuclear doctrine of the Commonwealth is fully consistent with the Treaty on the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons. At a conference in Chicago 3 years ago we revised our nuclear policy and decided, because it was expedient, " said the Secretary-General in the interview to the Ukrainian edition of the UNIAN reports.
According to Stoltenberg, that Russia began to use nuclear weapons as a tool in its " strategy of whipping up fear." The recent use of Russia's nuclear rhetoric and education (Russian military) cause deep anxiety and fears in terms of conformity to the Treaty on the destruction of intermediate-range and short range. Such actions and rhetoric do not promote transparency and predictability in the context of the security environment, which quickly changed due to the aggressive actions of Russia in Ukraine ", - said Stoltenberg. On Tuesday, the head of Vladimir Putin stated that Russia's nuclear forces in 2015 will add more than 40 Intercontinental ballistic missiles. In addition, the head of the country said that if someone threatens the territory of Russia, it is obliged to focus their weapons on those countries where the Danger comes. Explaining this message, Stoltenberg said that the words of Russia on strengthening of nuclear forces is unacceptable and dangerous. And the head of the UK Ministry of defence Michael Fallon said his country and NATO have the opportunity to increase military spending in response to the modernization of the military power of Russia. Note that this question is governed by the start-3 Treaty, which was signed by Russia and the United States. In the Ministry of foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation have already pointed out that setting into service in 2015, more than 40 Intercontinental ballistic missiles, does not violate Russia's obligations. For his part, the President of the Munich security conference, the famous German diplomat Wolfgang Ischinger said that the Russian Federation and NATO should immediately stop to "Flex its muscles" to avoid confusion and dangerous situations. And in the UN promised to monitor the situation following statements by NATO and Russia.
