“We had a great discussion on Russia, we discussed how to collectively respond to its actions,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

Earlier it became known that the declaration following the results of the NATO summit in London states that the organization’s members consider Russia's “aggressive actions” and international terrorism to be the main threats to the security of the alliance.

In December, Russian leader Vladimir Putin said that NATO expansion and the development of the alliance’s military infrastructure near Russia's borders are a potential security threat.

On November 20, Putin emphasized that the “Russian threat” is a fiction and everyone understands that Russia is not going to attack anyone.
