Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has questioned the framing of NATO as a"defensive" alliance, complaining that the bloc's"line of defense" continues to move east towards Russia, as fears mount that the Kremlin is planning an invasion of Ukraine.
"Let them console themselves with saying that it is 'defensive.' It does not make things easier for us," Lavrov told Russia's Channel One evening show on Sunday."The line of defense has already come close to us.""It turns out each time that the line they are supposed to defend is moving further east. Now, it has already come close to Ukraine," Russia's top diplomat added.His comments came amid heightened tensions on the Russia-Ukraine border.
