NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen thinks it necessary to return the Crimea, Ukraine. In addition, he called on the Russian authorities to begin the withdrawal of its own troops from the Ukrainian borders for the fall of tension. "We as before are considering the Crimea as part of Ukraine. We urge the Russian Federation to return Crimea to Ukraine," he said before opening in Brussels two-day meeting of defence Ministers from 28 countries-members of NATO. Rasmussen also announced that NATO does not evaluate the likelihood of military intervention in the incident in Ukraine. "We are not considering a military option. We continue to believe that the right way forward - a political and diplomatic resolution of the crisis," he said. Rasmussen reiterated the position that exactly the Russian Federation to take the necessary steps to de-escalate tensions in Ukraine for the beginning of the method "full withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukrainian borders. "We see the symptoms of the beginning of the objection, but as before 10s thousand Russian troops are at the Ukrainian border", - quotes the Secretary General of ITAR-TASS. Recall that earlier Russia has urged NATO strongly ask from Kiev to immediately stop the operation in South-Eastern Ukraine and to start scrupulously to fulfil the Geneva agreement and the "road map" of the OSCE. Besides Moscow announced an unprecedented activity of the Alliance near their borders, threatening escalation of tension and undermine formed security systems. "We urged members of the Council strongly ask from Kiev authorities immediately stop the punitive operation in the South-East power to perform the Geneva agreement of 17 April and the "road map" of the OSCE. This would go to this national dialogue, agreeing mutually acceptable constitutional reform," said the Russian Ambassador to NATO Alexander Grushko. Russia inter alia hopes the Alliance will condemn, in the end, the lawless actions of the national-radicals, performed in various cities of Ukraine. Taking into account opinion of the politician, NATO encourages Kyiv force, technical support, and bears some responsibility for the failure of the political process. Grushko also announced that the unprecedented activity of NATO near the Russian borders is fraught with tensions in the Euro-Atlantic area and undermining formed security systems. "We noted the unprecedented activity of NATO near the Russian borders. She sverhsvetovoy, inadequate, weakens the stability, security and predictability in the Euro-Atlantic region," he said following the meeting of the NRC. According to him, "presentation of military muscle, calls for increase in military expenditure" counterproductive. "This is a road to nowhere. Such actions are fraught with tensions in the Euro-Atlantic area and undermining the resulting security in the region", - said the Ambassador.
