Stoltenberg urges Russia to pull out troops from Donbas, stop supporting militants
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has urged Russia to withdraw troops from Donbas and to end its support to militants there and to end cyber attacks.
NATO has said on multiple occasions that Russia should pull forces out of eastern Ukraine, stop supporting the militants operating in that area, and end any attempts to destabilize Ukraine by means of cyber attacks, which is an element of hybrid warfare, Stoltenberg said.
NATO would continue to support Ukraine, Stoltenberg said at a meeting with Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman in Kyiv on Monday.
NATO will not recognize the annexation of Crimea, he added.
Groysman thanked NATO for its unwavering support for Ukraine.
Stoltenberg said earlier on Monday that NATO would supply Ukraine with equipment, which could help identify sources of cyber attacks.
