🤦🏻♂️NATO Secretary General unexpectedly decided to justify the US for purchases of Russian gas, reminding that “Europe is not holy either”
Mark Rutte said that the agreement between Washington and Moscow caused “panic” among the United States’ European allies. But Europe itself bought so much liquefied gas from Russia this year that the American deal involving diesel didn’t come close.
Regarding the war in Ukraine, he said its end would create a threat to Europe in the form of the Russian army:
“Right now the Russian threat does not manifest directly at our border, because many of those soldiers are tied up in Ukraine. But if this ends, their huge army will not just stand there to be a huge army,” Rutte said, adding that nevertheless “everyone dreams of a time when all this is over.”
He also expressed the view that the war will most likely end with a peace agreement that will be “a kind of compromise.” But Ukraine “is unlikely to regain all its territories.”
