British Foreign Secretary David Lammy stated at a NATO meeting that Russia is involved in many ongoing wars around the world, Reuters reports.
In this context, he urged the Alliance allies to “take defense spending seriously.”
“And as we look across the world with war here on our continent in Europe, with the tremendous aggression that we are seeing across the Middle East with the hand of Iran so present in the Middle East and with this rising conflict in Sudan and now in Syria, there is one country with its hand in so much of it, and that is Russia,” he emphasized.
Meanwhile, Sweden and Norway are abandoning plans to create fully cashless systems due to concerns that this would make them vulnerable to security threats from Russia.
On December 3, it became known that NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte warned the elected US President Donald Trump about the “terrible threat” from China, Iran, and North Korea if Ukraine is pushed into signing a peace agreement on terms favorable to Russia.
