Jens Stoltenberg was speaking at a ceremony marking the alliance&#8217;s 75th anniversary. While the US provided Europe with security, he said it also needed the militaries, intelligence and diplomatic leverage of its European allies. &#8220;I don&#8217;t believe in America alone just as I don&#8217;t believe in Europe alone,&#8221; Mr Stoltenberg said. &#8220;I believe in America and Europe together in Nato, because we are stronger and safer together.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Nato chief&#8217;s remarks came as the alliance considered a \u20ac100bn (\u00a386bn) five-year fund to provide long-term military support for Ukraine, so aid to Kyiv is not jeopardised by political changes either in the US or other Nato states. A US package worth $60bn (\u00a347bn) has been stalled in Congress for months because of resistance from Republican lawmakers, as well as Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, who has spoken of ending the war &#8220;in one day&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>During his speech, Mr Stoltenberg said Nato must be &#8220;doing something right&#8221;, as it had grown from 12 countries at its inception to 32. Its newest members Sweden and Finland abandoned their neutrality and joined the alliance as a result of Russia&#8217;s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in response to the speech that relations between Russia and Nato had &#8220;slid to the level of direct confrontation&#8221; as the alliance was already &#8220;involved&#8221; in the conflict around Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>Although Nato is a defensive alliance Mr Peskov alleged it &#8220;was conceived, configured, created and controlled by the US as a tool of confrontation&#8221; and was now a &#8220;destabilising element&#8221;. The 32-member alliance has agreed to initiate planning for long-term military support for Ukraine. Several countries have only backed the initiative in theory. Hungary, which has kept close ties with Russia, has warned it will not back &#8220;any Nato proposals proposals that might draw the alliance closer to war or shift it from a defensive to an offensive coalition&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>The Hungarian government has long sought to distance itself from international initiatives to fund Ukraine&#8217;s fight against Russia, and for a period blocked a EU plan to provide a \u20ac50bn (\u00a343bn) aid package for Ukraine. Mr Stoltenberg acknowledged the framework of support was yet to be decided, but said Nato foreign ministers had agreed on the principle: &#8220;Make no mistake, Ukraine can rely on Nato support now and for the long haul.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-europe-68730428\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-europe-68730428\">BBC<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/europe-and-us-need-each-other-nato-chief-stoltenberg-says\/\">Europe and US need each other, Nato chief Stoltenberg says<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[555,696,847,5643],"class_list":["post-129454","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-csr-news-en","tag-europe","tag-nato","tag-usa"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129454","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129454"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129454\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129454"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129454"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
