Russian President Vladimir Putin accused the NATO at a board meeting of the Federal Security Service (FSB) saying "NATO has declared restraining Russia its new official mission." He added has been trying to embroil Russia in confrontation by constant provocative actions, "For this purpose, the bloc has been expanding as it did before but now they seem to have found new serious reason to justify the bloc’s expansion and have sped up the process of deploying conventional and strategic weapons beyond the member states’ borders," the Russian president stressed.
He went on to say that "they have been constantly provoking us in order to embroil us in confrontation." The Russian leader also pointed to "the ongoing attempts to interfere in our internal affairs and destabilize the social and political situation in Russia." Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday he is worried over aggravating threats to global security, according to Russian news agency, Tass.
The Russian leader noted that at the NATO summit held in 2016 in Poland’s capital of Warsaw, "Russia was declared the main threat for the Alliance’s security for the first time since 1989." He cited the situation in a number of the Middle East, Asian and African countries, "where sanguinary conflicts involving international terrorist groups continue," as an example of the global escalation. "As a matter of fact, these are terrorist armies receiving concealed or even open support from certain states," he noted.
