If they '...Don't Want New Cold War or New Arms Race...'and much worse more , why are they so furiously embarking upon all ways and means to 'tightly' surrounding the Russian borders? And why do they so viciously engage in anti-Greece policies to the extent of proceeding to systematic, outrageous, longstanding falsification of history, truth, written and archaeologic evidence? Just to place one more member in the EU and the North Atlantic entity?
What leads them to this urge to 'swallow' Northern Greece via their brainwashed Skopjean minions? What does the Empire pursue by this Organization's chaotic inimical within the same body behavior and unnecessarily bellicose, towards its neighbors, actions?The Empire's anti-Human Criminality targetting to the overall enslavement of mankind!

'We Don't Want New Cold War or New Arms Race': NATO Reacts to Putin's Speech

Sputnik/ Sergey Melkonov
NATO
said that Russian statements were "unacceptable and counterproductive"
after President Vladimir Putin revealed a new arsenal of hypersonic
weapons announced as "invincible".
"Russian
statements threatening to target Allies are unacceptable and
counterproductive. We do not want a new Cold War or a new arms race. All
Allies support arms control agreements which build trust and
confidence, for everyone's benefit," NATO spokeswoman Oana Lungescu said
in a statement.
She was commenting on Putin's nation speech featured video montages
of missiles crossing mountains and oceans, though the Kremlin later
insisted the maps used did not represent any actual countries. Also,
Lungescu reminded, that the alliance would continue with its twin-track
approach with Russia, a "dialogue paired with strong deterrence and
defense."
"NATO is a defensive alliance, which stands
ready to defend all members against any threat," Lungescu said, taking
into account Russian concerns about US-led alliance's missile defense
system in Europe.

"As we have repeatedly made clear, the
alliance's missile defense is neither designed nor directed
against Russia. Our system defends against ballistic missiles
from outside the Euro-Atlantic area," Lungescu said.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel and US President Donald Trump
discussed in a phone conversation Putin's claims, Berlin said Friday,
and analysts have cautioned that Putin was effectively challenging
Washington to a new arms race. To such suggestions, Russian President
said, that a new arms race has started when the US left
the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty.
