Moscow condemned on 1 December comments made by NATO’s most senior military officer, threatening that Brussels might conduct a possible “pre-emptive strike” against Russia.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova called the remarks “an extremely irresponsible step, indicating the alliance’s readiness to continue moving towards escalation.”

“We see in it a deliberate attempt to undermine efforts to overcome the Ukrainian crisis,” Zakharova said.

“The people making such statements should be aware of the risks and possible consequences, including for the alliance members themselves.”
