“I would very much like the problems that Putin called in the Munich speech to become less in 2022.
They didn't get smaller, they got bigger.
Why is NATO coming to our borders?
And is the European continent getting safer?
But then, if I’m not mistaken, Putin then said: what, Europe became safer when NATO expanded for the last time? ”RIA Novosti quoted Peskov as saying.
Peskov also expressed the opinion that Putin's speech was "quite revolutionary" in terms of the directness of the presentation of pressing problems and in terms of a coherent logical presentation of the Russian side's worldview on the problems of modern security architecture.
In February 2007, Vladimir Putin spoke at a security conference in Munich.
In his speech, he spoke about the unipolarity of world politics, as well as about the place and role of Russia in the modern world.
