Russian President Vladimir Putin, responding to recent European accusations that Moscow violated NATO’s eastern airspace, stated that “Russia must not be provoked and weakness is unacceptable for us.”
Emphasizing that Moscow has repeatedly proven that any threat to its sovereignty will be met with a swift response, he added: “It is impossible to imagine a Russian attack on NATO.”
Putin also accused the ruling elites in Europe of fueling tensions by claiming that conflict with Russia was imminent.
