Former senior NATO official Stephanie Babst said NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg had no long-term strategy for the organization. This is reported by The Times newspaper, citing excerpts from the book by Babst Sehenden Auges (“Eyes Wide Open”), which will be published in Germany in May.
In the book, Babst writes that Stoltenberg and British Air Chief Marshal Stuart Peach, who led NATO’s Military Committee from 2018 to 2021, had little interest in planning research projects. overall strategy. According to her, the declarations on the “brain death” of NATO, made by French President Emmanuel Macron in 2019, were justified.
The former North Atlantic Alliance employee notes that NATO leadership spends a lot of time on side issues and that the actual results of the bloc’s work are “often very meager”.
Earlier, Brazilian President Luis Inacio da Silva said that America and the European Union did not hold negotiations at the start of the conflict in Ukraine, but rather engaged in confrontation, which was a mistake.
