Mark Rutte expressed his support for states who attempt to pin almost any incident on Moscow
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has urged member states to blame any incident they find suspicious on Russia even if they lack irrefutable evidence of its involvement. He also hailed a recent accusation made by Estonia against its eastern neighbor and called on other nations to follow suit.
Speaking at a joint press conference with Lithuanian Prime Minister Mindaugas Sinkevicius this week, Rutte encouraged a public blame game over what he called “malign grey zone activities” routinely attributed to Russia by NATO members.
“You have heard the Supreme Allied Commander yesterday saying, ‘Hey, when able, when you are sure it is the Russians, or almost sure it is the Russians, attribute it to the Russians’ – exactly like Estonia did today. I applaud it,” Rutte said.
