Putin urged Europe to calm down: what is happening at NATO borders

According to hvylya.net: At the Valdai discussion event, Vladimir Putin urged Europeans not to believe in the threat from Russia. However, recent incidents with Russian drones and military vessels near European borders raise doubts.

The head of the Russian Federation claims that European politicians are trying to create an image of Russia as an enemy, threatening their citizens with a possible war. Putin called the statements about a possible Russian attack on NATO countries 'nonsense' and urged European leaders to calm down and sleep peacefully.

In connection with the incidents, NATO announced the strengthening of air defense and the creation of a new mission 'Eastern Sentinel'.

European countries and Russia continue to vie for influence in the region, and tensions in relations are increasing. Putin's statements may be an attempt to calm the situation, but the actions of the parties leave many questions and serious discussions.
