Russia's military goal is unattainable, but Putin will not stop it - NATO Secretary General

Jens Stoltenberg is convinced that the Kremlin will no longer reach its goal in Ukraine. However, according to him, this does not affect the territorial appetites of Vladimir Putin. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that the goal with which Russian President Vladimir Putin has been opening the war in Ukraine is already unattainable. His words were conveyed in Spiegel on December 22.

Stoltenberg is convinced that the purpose of a full -scale war in Ukraine was to prevent the country's accession to NATO and the European Union. According to him, Kiev is closer to the Alliance and the EU than ever. NATO Secretary General stressed that the Russian Federation pays a high price for the war in Ukraine. The aggressor country lost hundreds of planes and thousands of tanks, and 300,000 of its soldiers were killed or injured.

In addition, inflation has increased in Russia itself and has fallen living. Moscow's political isolation has only intensified. However, Stoltenberg urged not to hope that the war would end quickly. He does not believe that after the next election, Putin will change his course. "We have no signs that Putin will change his goals and his policies. He will continue to try to occupy more territories," NATO Secretary General. He stressed that NATO should continue Ukraine's strong support.
