Russia - Peskov recalled Putin's Munich speech and NATO's eastward expansion

Russia (bbabo.net) - In 2007, at the Munich Security Conference, Russian President Vladimir Putin wondered why NATO was moving its military infrastructure closer to our borders. The answer for 15 years has not sounded. But this topic is relevant again.

"Now Russia is directly at the" red lines "of its national interests and security interests," - said the press secretary of the head of state Dmitry Peskov (quoted by RIA Novosti).

Recall that on February 10, 2007, Putin severely criticized US foreign policy and the idea of ​​a unipolar world order, opposed the expansion of NATO to the east.

This issue is again at the forefront of the foreign policy agenda, Peskov emphasizes.

At the end of 2021, Moscow demanded from its Western partners legal guarantees of refusing to further expand NATO to the east and to deploy military bases on the territory of post-Soviet countries.
