We can say it even more clearly: We have slid into a new period of
Cold War," he said, speaking at the Munich Security Conference. NATO
general secretary Jens Stoltenberg had earlier addressed the forum on the
subject of tensions with Russia, vowing a firm stance while also offering
dialogue.
"We have seen a more assertive Russia, a Russia which is destabilising the
European security order," T he NATO chief said that "some are
concerned that we are sleepwalking toward escalation with Russia... I
understand those concerns but I do not share them." stressed that
"for NATO, the circumstances in which any use of nuclear weapons might
have to be contemplated are extremely remote" and cautioned that "no-one
should think that nuclear weapons can be used as part of conventional
conflict". between Russia and the West have plunged the world into a
"new Cold War".
