A German official said NATO will discuss Russia’s security proposals but won’t let Moscow dictate the bloc's military posture amid rising tension over Ukraine, Reuters reported.
During a visit to a German military base in Lithuania on Sunday, German Defense Minister Christine Lambrecht told reporters, "We need to solve the current tensions on the diplomatic level but just as well by putting up a credible deterrence.”
"We will discuss Russia's proposals," she added, "But it cannot be that Russia dictates to NATO partners their posture, and that is something that we will make very clear in the talks" next week at the NATO council.
