Increase the price for Putin: NATO Secretary General makes a loud statement about helping Ukraine.

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg called for increasing pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin and his allies by providing Ukraine with the necessary support to change the course of the war.

As reported by Interfax-Ukraine, Stoltenberg made the statement during a joint briefing with French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday.

'We must commit to maintaining this course for a long time. And we must do more than just support Ukraine in its struggle. We need to increase the price for Putin and his authoritarian friends by providing Ukraine with the support needed to change the trajectory of the conflict,' emphasized the NATO Secretary General.

According to Stoltenberg, ensuring the security and prosperity of its citizens requires the consolidation of efforts from Europe, North America, and global partners.

The NATO Secretary General also emphasized the importance of strengthening the alliance's defense and deepening transatlantic defense cooperation. He positively noted that France will invest over 2% of its GDP in defense this year.

Stoltenberg warned that Russia, in cooperation with North Korea, Iran, and China, poses a threat not only to Europe but to peace and security in general.
