NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has said that NATO Foreign Ministers will meet in Brussels on December 4-5 to discuss a wide range of security issues, including Russian aggressive actions against Ukrainian navy ships in the Kerch Strait.
The statement of the NATO Secretary General has been posted on the website of the alliance.
“We will address Russia destabilizing behaviour, we recently saw how Russia used military force against Ukrainian vessels and arrested the ships and the sailors and we call on Russia to immediately release the ships and the sailors,” he said.
“We are also concerned about the new Russia missile system which puts the INF Treaty [the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces] in jeopardy. It’s urgent that Russia ensures full compliance in a transparent and verifiable way. Because the INF Treaty is so important for our security,” Jens Stoltenberg said.
