NATO Chief Says Alliance 'Does Not Want New Cold War'

NATO is going to dispatch 4.000 soldiers to four countries of its members in northern and south-eastern areas, which are close enough to Russia. Those four countries are Poland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, and there will be 1.000 soldiers deployed in each country in the beginning of next year. Those soldiers will be directed by the US, Britain, Canada, and Germany. The main purpose of such actions conducted by NATO is to provide the protection and prevention towards unexpected problems relating to Russia for its members.


Jens Stoltenberg, the secretary-general of NATO, has stated that troop’s deployment is not aimed to oppose Russia or even create the new cold war. Conversely, NATO does it to increase the safety of its members worrying about several issues which have caused some tensions between Russia and the West. Both parties have tangled with each other in some complicated and controversial issues recently. In 2014, the US and EU wanted to give a few penalties to Russia for its invasion of Ukraine’s Crimean peninsula. Another issue is Russia’s severe attacking the opposition as an effort to reinforce Syrian government.


I still do not understand why a lot of countries are in attempts to confront each other to get whatever they want even if they try to camouflage their dislikes or agendas. Nowadays, there are plenty of issues occurring in all parts of the world, and those problems have gradually made ordinary civilians sick. People only need their government to guarantee their welfare instead of messing with other countries that may bring the civilians suffering.
