Putin dismisses claims of attacking Nato as 'nonsense'

Russian President Vladimir Putin has labeled as “nonsense” the idea that Russia intends to attack Europe after Ukraine. He pointed out the substantial disparity in military spending between Russia and Nato forces, suggesting that the notion is being used to scare the population and extract more funding. Additionally, Putin reassured Eastern European countries, which are often seen as US allies, that they have nothing to fear from Russia in terms of a potential incursion.
