NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg says NATO does not consider Russia an “enemy”.

“We don’t list foes. So we don’t define Russia as an enemy. What we see is a more assertive Russia, which has used military force against neighbor Ukraine,” Stoltenberg told CNN, reports Ukrinform.

At the same time, he emphasized that NATO would not turn a blind eye to Russian aggression and ensured that the Alliance would try to apply dialogue wherever it is possible.
