The senator in his Telegram noted this nomination with surprise, given that the military alliance led by Stoltenberg was involved in a number of conflicts.

“That is, the secretary general of the world’s largest military bloc, armed to the teeth, bombing Libya, participating in the endless US war in Afghanistan, provoking the ultimate aggravation of the Ukrainian crisis with his policy ... will be declared the “keeper of peace” and the main “pigeon of the planet” ?! Pushkov wrote.

He also added that the same person "allows the possibility of a direct military conflict between NATO and Russia."

The senator stressed that if suddenly the head of NATO receives an appropriate award, the Nobel Committee will finally lose the remnants of authority.

Earlier, Stoltenberg said that he considers the supply of weapons to Ukraine by the member countries of the alliance as a guarantee of peace.
