NATO Secretary General Rutte: Putin is at most a Texas Governor, don't take him too seriously
According to foreign media, the Moscow Times, on September 4, NATO Secretary General Rutte was asked at the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) summit held in Prague about "whether Russia would agree to NATO troops entering Ukraine." He said, "Why should we care about what Russia thinks of the Ukrainian army? Ukraine is a sovereign country. It's not something Russia can decide. Every time I hear this question, I really feel surprised."
Rutte said, "It's the same as when Finland and Sweden were in that situation. If Ukraine wants to deploy security forces within Ukraine to support a peace agreement, it's their own business. I think we really need to stop making Putin too powerful."
Rutte emphasized, "He is at most a Texas governor, so we shouldn't take him too seriously."
Previously, some media reported that Russia's economy is only about equivalent to that of Texas, USA.
