NATO’s Geoana: There are no indications that Russia has any intention of attacking a NATO state

Published on

NATO Deputy Secretary General Mircea Geoana says that there are no indications of the Russian Federation having an intention of attacking a NATO member state, but that the worries of the Romanians living near the Danube border with Ukraine are understandable, write Agerpres.

„There are no indications that the Russian Federation has any intention of attacking a NATO member state, be it Romania or any other state. And that is a result of the power and strength of our alliance. We are the first element of deterrence (… ).Obviously, when a few hundred metres or a few kilometres away from your home, from your workplace you hear the noise of war, obviously it creates excitement for you and obviously it creates anxiety and anguish. I understand that. But there is no risk against Romania in the sense of being dragged into this conflict or the conflict having an extension towards Romania,” Geoana said on Monday in the town of Racari, Dambovita County.

The NATO official also announced his intention to visit the areas in Tulcea County in the vicinity of the Ukrainian ports constantly attacked by drones of the Russian Federation.

„What would have happened had we not been in NATO? And maybe this would be additional confidence in the fact that we belong to the strongest alliance in the history of humankind. And I even intend to visit soon and (…) maybe my presence and my message will be a message of peace, trust and calm,” said Geoana.
