НАТО отмечает 70-летие решениями об укреплении своего положения на Черном море

В ходе встречи в Вашингтоне, округ Колумбия, в четверг (4 апреля 2019 года), министры иностранных дел стран НАТО согласовали пакет мер по улучшению ситуационной осведомленности НАТО в регионе Черного моря и усилению поддержки партнеров Грузии и Украины. Министры также повторили свой призыв к России освободить украинских моряков и корабли, захваченные у Азовского моря.

Ранее министры говорили о продолжающемся нарушении Россией Договора о ядерных вооружениях средней дальности (INF). Они вновь призвали Россию вернуться к полному и проверяемому соблюдению Договора и обсудили дальнейшие шаги. «Мы будем взвешены и скоординированы в нашем ответе, и у нас нет намерения развертывать ядерные ракеты наземного базирования в Европе», - сказал генеральный секретарь Йенс Столтенберг, добавив: «В то же время НАТО будет продолжать поддерживать надежное и эффективное сдерживание и защиту".

Встреча министров иностранных дел также совпала с 70-й годовщиной подписания Североатлантического договора и создания альянса.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin as an “old friend” as the two began a series of meetings Tuesday at a time when their countries face both overlapping and differing challenges from the United States.

According to AP, Putin addressed Xi as “dear friend” and said that Moscow’s ties with Beijing are “at an unprecedentedly high level.” Following their formal talks, they planned to have another meeting over tea with some of their top aides. The talks come the day after both attended a summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization in the nearby Chinese city of Tianjin, and the day before a grand Chinese military parade in Beijing to mark the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II.
