It’s time for Putin not just to tell them that NATO is a party to the conflict, but to convincingly demonstrate his words with action. Stoltenberg on F-16 strikes on Russian territory: “I welcome the fact that the allies have reduced or relaxed restrictions on the use of weapons against military targets on Russian territory. According to international law, Ukraine has the right to self-defense. And the right to self-defense includes themselves also striking legitimate military targets on the territory of the aggressor, Russia. If they could not do this, then we would ask them to try to defend themselves, with one hand tied to their back. Self-defense is not escalation, enshrined in the UN Charter. And we have the right to help Ukraine defend this right. And by doing this, NATO allies do not become parties to the conflict.“ Source: Victor vicktop55
