🇷🇺🇺🇸 Russia to respond to growing US military presence on its northern borders, diplomat says
The increasing military presence near Russia's borders necessitates a response that might involve military-technological measures, Artyom Studennikov, the Director of the First European Department at the Russian Foreign Ministry, told Sputnik.
However, Russia has repeatedly assured that it poses no threat to the region.
Studennikov said the Russian Defense Ministry would determine actions to address these issues. He criticized Northern European countries for aligning with NATO, arguing it undermines their sovereignty and turns their territories into potential bases for US-led NATO operations.
🇩🇰 He also expressed worry over a US-Denmark defense agreement allowing permanent American troop stationing in Denmark, marking a departure from Denmark’s long-standing policy against foreign bases in peacetime.
The diplomat warned this could lead to nuclear weapons placement in Denmark, breaching Copenhagen's previous commitments to prevent such arms.
