Former US Ambassador Ivo Daalder: NATO is increasingly wary of Russia’s ambitions on the world stage. He expressed this opinion in an article for the Politico newspaper.

Earlier, the representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said that there are no plans in Russia to attack the countries of the North Atlantic Alliance. In addition, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov called the West's statements that the Baltic states, Sweden and Finland could be “next” after the special operation in Ukraine absurd.
