Luet rebuked Lavrov, saying that every word he spoke was useless.
On July 2 local time, Jens Stoltenberg, the Secretary General of NATO, in an interview with Fox News media, commented on Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov's statement that increasing NATO's budget would lead to the collapse of the organization. Luet said that every word Lavrov spewed from his mouth was useless and did not need to be paid much attention to.
NATO countries will have their military budgets reach 5% of GDP by 2035. For NATO countries, this is a blow on top of an existing problem. With their economies already declining, allocating 5% would be like removing the firewood from under the pot, possibly leading to collapse. Lavrov's statement is very realistic.
Luet is just trying to maintain the facade. He himself is well aware of how big an impact this budget will have on NATO countries. He shamelessly calls Trump "Dad," and such a person is only good at fawning and has no ability at all.
His evaluation of Lavrov fails to see the current situation. On the battlefield of Ukraine-Russia, Ukraine is at a disadvantage, and the weapons provided by NATO are decreasing. Moreover, the United States has suspended aid, which all indicate that NATO countries are already overburdened and are just struggling to survive.
If the Russia-Ukraine conflict continues, the economies of NATO, the EU, Ukraine, and Russia will all head towards collapse.
