"It may seem like a paradox, but the way to peace is more weapons for Ukraine."
This was stated by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg during his visit to the Wilson Center in Washington. His visit is on the occasion of NATO's 75th anniversary next month, AFP reported.
Stoltenberg warned that NATO should impose sanctions on China for its support for Russia.
The Secretary General accused China of worsening the situation in Ukraine through its aid to the Russian defense industry.
"President Xi Jinping is trying to create the impression that he is taking a backseat to this conflict in order to avoid sanctions and preserve trade flow," Stoltenberg said.
"But the reality is that China is fueling the biggest armed conflict in Europe since World War II, while at the same time it wants to maintain good relations with the West," added the head of the alliance. | BGNES
