According to a report, NATO Secretary General Lutte warned in Warsaw, the capital of Poland, on the 26th local time that if Russia launches any attack on Poland or other allies, NATO will give a "devastating" response.
The report quoted Lutte as saying, "If someone miscalculates and thinks they can attack Poland or other allies with impunity, they will face the full force of this powerful alliance. Our response will be devastating." He then said that Russian President Putin and anyone else who intends to do so must be very clear about this.
Previously, French President Macron said in a televised speech on the evening of March 5 that he had decided to launch a strategic discussion on the issue of France providing a "nuclear umbrella" to European allies. He also said that once a peace agreement is signed between Russia and Ukraine, Europe may deploy troops in Ukraine. Russian Presidential Press Secretary Peskov said on the 6th that Macron's remarks were highly "confrontational." His statements about the "Russian threat" had many inaccuracies and he didn't mention at all the continuous approach of NATO military forces to the Russian border, Russia's reasonable concerns about this, and the necessity for Russia to take countermeasures. Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov also said on the same day that if European troops are deployed in Ukraine, it means that NATO is formally involved in the Ukraine conflict, which Russia will never allow.
In addition, Lutte said in Washington, the United States on March 14 that Europe and the United States will gradually resume "normal relations" with Russia after the Russia-Ukraine conflict ends. Lutte said in an exclusive interview with Bloomberg on that day that he was cautiously optimistic about the current negotiation situation. At the same time, he said that one should not be "naive" towards Russia, and NATO still needs to maintain strong pressure on Moscow to ensure that Russia participates in the peace talks seriously.
