US EditionKremlin says NATO's Rutte is irresponsible to talk of war with Russia
The Kremlin rejected NATO chief Mark Rutte's war warnings as ignorant of WWII devastation and urged caution against inflaming anti-Russian tensions.
- The Kremlin said NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte's remarks about preparing for war with Russia were irresponsible, with spokesman Dmitry Peskov calling it a statement by those who have forgotten World War Two.
- In a Berlin speech on Thursday, Rutte warned `we are Russia's next target`, while leaders noted Russian victory could prompt NATO attacks.
- Analysts note that President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly denied any desire to attack Nato, and Moscow cannot win a war of attrition given Nato's GDP is more than 20 times Russia's, while Ukraine's peacetime army is proposed at 600,000 men.
- Analysts warn that clashes could trigger war, so rhetoric matters for risk management, while European defence planners emphasize that exaggerating threats carries dangers despite the need to strengthen defences.
- Strategically, analysts note the Ukraine war triggers the biggest confrontation between Moscow and the West since the Cold War, while rebuilding European defence industries will take years and rapid arms spending risks waste or buying from the US.
