NATO chief: Everything points to a full-scale Russian attack on Ukraine

NATO expects that the Russian army will launch a full-scale attack on Ukraine, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said on Saturday night.

Stoltenberg, who is attending the big security conference in Munich this weekend, told the German TV station ARD that all indications point to Russia planning a major attack.

“We all agree that the risk of an attack is great,” he said, adding that the Russian build-up of military forces continues.

“No soldiers have been withdrawn, despite what Russia says. On the contrary, more soldiers are being sent to the areas,” Stoltenberg warned.

He emphasized that he hoped for a political solution to the conflict.

“We want Russia to change course and sit down with us (for talks),” he told ARD.
