Germany is concerned about escalating the conflict in Ukraine, NATO says it is unlikely

Berlin [Germany], June 7: During a joint press conference with Finnish President Alexander Stubb on June 6, Mr. Stoltenberg stated: "We do not see any imminent military threat to any NATO ally . And right now Russia is busy." focus on the war in Ukraine ", while leaving open the issue of whether NATO can rebuild its forces in Ukraine after the war ends, according to RT Radio.
Mr. Stoltenberg announced that Russia had transferred some forces from areas near Finland and other Nordic countries to Ukraine. Even if the fighting ends in Ukraine, it will still take Moscow some time to recover its military forces and cannot launch an attack on NATO because "the bloc accounts for 50% of the world's military power".
"Therefore, the idea of ​​counting down to the next war is wrong. NATO is here to prevent that from happening. We have been doing so for 75 years," Mr. Stoltenberg said.
Agreeing with the above view, Finnish President Stubb said: "I find the whole idea that a country like Russia would somehow attack or threaten the largest military alliance in the world is quite unbelievable." . Mr Stubb emphasized that the best way to prevent war is to "prepare for it".
Previously, speaking on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg (SPIEF), Russian President Vladimir Putin also denied accusations that Moscow was preparing to attack NATO.
In a less optimistic message, German Prime Minister Olaf Scholz told parliament on June 6 that many Germans are concerned that the Russia-Ukraine conflict could escalate further, leading to Berlin's direct involvement. However, the German leader said that the armed policy must continue and allow Ukraine to use weapons donated by the West to attack deep into Russian territory.
