NATO seeks to spread nuclear weapons

According to the news agency AP, the member states of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) are consulting on bringing nuclear weapons to combat readiness.NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg considers this organization a nuclear alliance and claims that NATO's goal is a world free of nuclear weapons. "Stoltenberg" claimed: "A world where Russia, China and North Korea have nuclear weapons and NATO does not is a more dangerous world."

NATO Secretary General added: America and its European allies are currently modernizing their nuclear arsenals.At the same time, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, in response to the NATO Secretary General's statements, said: "Such rhetoric is nothing more than taking a step towards the escalation of tension."

Maria Zakharova, the spokeswoman of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, warned the member countries of the organization regarding NATO's plans to force the delivery of weapons to Ukraine.Zakharova said: - Europe should understand that Washington is dragging them into a direct confrontation with Russia under the banner of NATO.

The spokesperson of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs also emphasized that US President Joe Biden needs more bloodshed in Europe to stay in power.Recently, at the meeting of the ministers of NATO member states in Brussels, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said: - NATO's European allies will increase their military spending in order to fairly share the burden in the US and Europe.

Meanwhile, US Defense Minister Lloyd Austin has recently emphasized that there is no plan to expand NATO in the near future.Hungary, as a strategic partner of Russia, has also announced that NATO is planning to create 3 military bases to supply weapons to Ukraine.Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said that if these bases are established in countries bordering Ukraine, such as Poland, Romania and Slovakia, they will become military targets.
