Russia will pay a high price if it attacks Ukraine, NATO says

Any new aggression will lead to serious consequences, Blinken said. NATO has different options for its response, Stoltenberg added.

The United States and NATO warned Russia about the consequences due to the situation on the border with Ukraine, writes Interfax-Ukraine on Tuesday, November 30th.

“Any escalation on the part of Russia will cause great concern in the United States. And any new aggression will lead to serious consequences,” said US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken ahead of the meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Riga.

In turn, Secretary General of the Alliance Jens Stoltenberg said that “Russia will pay a high price if it uses its armed forces against such an independent country as Ukraine.”

He named a specific response to such actions of the Russian Federation. “We have different options for the reaction,” the secretary general added.

Earlier, Stoltenberg called the build-up of Russian military power near the border with Ukraine inexplicable and unjustified, and urged the Russian Federation to “reduce tension.”

Russia’s actions are purely defensive in nature, say in Moscow, rejecting any accusations of provoking an escalation.
