Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann, head of the Bundestag Defense Committee of the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG), believes that the discussion of security guarantees in relation to Russia is an "artificial discussion." It is reported by RIA Novosti.

“Russia has received security guarantees under the NATO-Russia Act. There is no threat that would come from NATO, ”Strak-Zimmerman emphasized.

She also drew attention to the fact that she did not know where some parts of the North Atlantic Alliance were located near the borders that threatened the Russian Federation.

“And so this is an artificial discussion, which is now proposed to increase tension,” concluded the head of the German committee.

Struck-Zimmerman also recalled that Berlin is monitoring the situation in Europe.

Earlier, the source confirmed the authenticity of the US and NATO response to Russia's proposals published by the media.

In December last year, the Russian Foreign Ministry published drafts of a treaty between Russia and the United States on security guarantees and an agreement on measures to ensure the security of the Russian Federation and NATO member states.
