American President Donald Trump: Russia is not planning to attack any country in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).

WASHINGTON /MOSCOW – U.S. President Donald Trump stated that, in his opinion, Russia does not plan a military attack against any member state of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). Trump reiterated his position on Thursday, August 27th, and also dismissed concerns that Moscow might test NATO's resolve in the near future. Previously, in an interview with Axios, when asked about the possibility of a Russian attack on a NATO member, Trump said that he was not at all worried about such a scenario. According to the U.S. president, Russia has no intention of attacking the territory of the North Atlantic Alliance given the current situation.

“I’m not concerned about it at all. I don't see any problem with it,” Trump said in an interview with Axios. The President also commented on the recent trip by Director of U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) John Ratcliffe to Moscow. His visit attracted considerable attention because the CIA chief met with Director of Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) Sergei Naryshkin in the Russian capital. This was one of the most significant direct U.S.-Russian intelligence meetings in recent years.

Trump rejected interpretations by some Western media outlets suggesting that Ratcliffe may have delivered a warning to the Russian side during his visit to Moscow about a potential attack on NATO member states. The U.S. president described the trip as a routine working matter and emphasized that, in his opinion, Ratcliffe and Naryshkin have good relations. “It’s very sort of semi-routine,” Trump said regarding the CIA chief's visit. He also suggested that the United States is primarily seeking to resolve the conflict in Ukraine through such contacts.

Naryshkin himself confirmed that he met with Ratcliffe in Moscow. According to him, it was a working meeting concerning matters within the purview of intelligence services, and there was nothing extraordinary about the meeting. However, the significance of the visit remains subject to speculation. Several U.S. media outlets, citing unnamed sources, reported that Ratcliffe may have actually warned Moscow about a potential attack on a NATO member. However, this information has not been officially confirmed by either Washington or Moscow.

Meanwhile, the Kremlin dismissed reports of a purported planned Russian attack against NATO as unfounded. Spokesman for the Russian president Dmitry Peskov described such information as "scary stories" and stated that it does not reflect reality or Russia's intentions. Trump's statement comes at a time of heightened attention to the security of European countries and the future of relations between the United States, Russia, and NATO. However, the President's public position suggests that he does not consider an imminent Russian attack on a member country of the alliance to be a real threat.
