Moscow is astonished at the statements of US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson about alleged ‘Russian aggression,’ the Russian foreign ministry said on Friday commenting on the results of a NATO ministerial meeting in Brussels.

“As far as we can see, maintaining unity within a multilateral structure, like NATO which incorporates such different states, is not an easy mission,” the ministry said.

 

“It requires a strong uniting motive. It did not take much effort for NATO ministers to find it, as follows from their comments. They have always on their mind one and the same thing – a myth of a ‘Russian threat,’ allegations about ‘Russian aggression’ and endless mantras about the necessity to meet is collectively.”

 

“We were astonished at the corresponding pronouncements by US State Secretary Rex Tillerson,” the ministry said.
