U.S. President Donald Trump is confident that Russia will not launch an attack on any NATO country. In a conversation with reporters, he stated, "I’ve had good talks with him. He’s not going to be attacking a NATO territory." This assertion comes after reports from the Wall Street Journal and Politico, which cited unnamed sources and mentioned CIA Director John Ratcliffe's warning against an attack on NATO allies during his recent visit to Moscow.
Trump, however, did not comment on the specifics of Ratcliffe's trip. He reiterated his stance by asserting, "Well, I don’t want to comment on that, but they’re not going to attack." On Thursday, the head of Russia's foreign intelligence service, Sergei Naryshkin, confirmed his meeting with Ratcliffe but provided no details about the discussions.
The Kremlin has dismissed reports of possible Russian preparations for an attack on NATO allies as "horror stories."
