How Peskov commented on Stoltenberg's statement about strikes on Russia
On September 16, Stoltenberg said that lifting restrictions on the Ukrainian Armed Forces launching strikes deep into Russia using Western long-range weapons would not make NATO part of the conflict.
The alliance's Secretary General added that he supports countries that have spoken out in favor of lifting restrictions.
Peskov called Stoltenberg's reluctance to take into account Russian President Vladimir Putin's statements about the consequences of strikes on Russia a short-sighted and unprofessional step.
The Kremlin spokesman recalled that Stoltenberg will soon leave his post as NATO Secretary General and will not be held responsible for his statements.
But the position is extremely provocative and dangerous, ” added the press secretary of the head of the Russian state.
