Ukrainian intelligence has found that Russia plans to conduct new military operations in NATO countries, stated Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the Defense Industry Forum in The Hague.
"Our intelligence confirms this. Russia is even planning new military operations on NATO territory," Zelenskyy said.
He clarified that Western countries must stop Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Ukraine, as his ambitions extend beyond Ukraine's borders.
Rutte's warning
Earlier, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte stated that Russia could prepare to attack NATO countries within the next five years.
According to him, Russia is ramping up defense production and manufacturing weapons faster than the Alliance had anticipated.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned that by 2030, Russia will "have significantly greater capabilities" for a potential attack on NATO countries.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, for his part, has already denied having plans to attack Alliance nations.
