“Now we have, over these ten years [since 2014 that he took over], undergone the largest transformation in a era. Now we have strengthened our defenses, from having zero to tens of hundreds combat-ready NATO troopers on our jap flank, from hundreds to half one million troops on excessive readiness and from 3 to 23 allies spending at the least 2% of GDP on protection,” Stoltenberg mentioned throughout a session named “Reflections on a Difficult Decade,” hosted by the German Marshal fund in Brussels. In recent times, Russia has witnessed unprecedented NATO exercise close to its western borders. Moscow has repeatedly expressed concern in regards to the bloc’s buildup of forces in Europe, particularly because the bloc supported the Kiev regime amid its assaults on Donbass. In an interview with US journalist Tucker Carlson earlier in February, Russian President Vladimir Putin mentioned that Moscow had no intentions of attacking any NATO nations. Putin added that NATO nations have been making an attempt to intimidate their very own populations with an imaginary Russian risk.
