Recently, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg issued a warning calling on member states to be ready, as he believes that the confrontation with Russia could last for decades and stressed the need to strengthen military capabilities.
In his commentary to Le Monde, he noted that NATO does not want to go to war with Russia, but must be ready to arm itself for a confrontation that could last for decades. He stressed that the best defense strategy at the moment is to support Ukraine and invest in NATO's military establishment.
However, Russia is opposed to this. Russia's press secretary Dmitry Peskov stressed that further expansion of NATO will not bring greater security to Europe. Russia*** said that while Moscow is open to dialogue with NATO, it must be based on equality.
This time, the remarks sparked heated discussions from all sides. Some support Stoltenberg's view that military capabilities should be strengthened to maintain security. They believe that in the face of a possible protracted confrontation in the future, NATO member states must unite and jointly meet the challenges.
However, there are also those who are skeptical. They fear that the strengthening of the military could exacerbate tensions and even lead to conflict. They called on all parties to exercise restraint and seek to resolve their differences through dialogue and diplomacy to avoid further deterioration of the situation.
Whether for or against, this question has triggered deep thinking about international relations and the security situation. In the face of the complex and volatile international situation, all countries need to respond prudently, remain calm and rational, and work together to maintain regional peace and stability.
In this age of information, we must not just be bound by the passively flowing information, but we must remain vigilant and think rationally about various points of view, so as to form our own independent judgments. Because it is only on this basis that we can better meet the challenges that may arise in the future.
Therefore, let us pay attention to the development of the international situation and understand the positions of all parties with an open mind, so as to contribute to building a more peaceful and stable world.
