Prime Minister Orban: NATO countries do not want conflict with Russia

According to RIA Novosti, sharing on TV2, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban said that the majority of NATO countries believe that any conflict between the alliance and Russia will lead to World War III and this should be avoided.

"The most important thing is that the majority of NATO members believe that any conflict with Russia could lead us to World War III," said Prime Minister Orban.

According to the Hungarian leader, if NATO intervenes in the war on the Ukrainian side, the risk of World War III is possible. If the alliance accepts Kiev, NATO will constantly conflict with Russia, and constantly create the threat of World War III. Therefore, everyone wants to avoid such a conflict.

Slovakian Foreign Minister Juraj Blanar said that resolving the conflict in Ukraine requires establishing a dialogue with Russia.

“Let's return to respect for international law and find ways to engage with the Russian Federation,” Blanar said, adding that the West must find ways to cooperate with Russia.
"And maybe one day forgive everything that happened" - Slovakia's Foreign Minister suggested.
Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that the West began to guess that they would not be able to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia.

American political scientist Gilbert Doctorov said that Russia's opponents, in their pursuit of putting pressure on Moscow, may have forgotten Russia's main "card" in the form of nuclear weapons.

"And what will be the result of strengthening NATO and putting pressure on Russia? There will be no defeat or concessions. I repeat that Russia has nuclear weapons, they can deter any aggression against them" – Mr. Gilbert said.
