NATO defense ministers to discuss Russia

NATO defense ministers will meet on October 21-22 to assess Russia's nuclear capable missile systems, including hypersonic systems, said Secretary-General of the Alliance Jens Stoltenberg.

According to him, NATO's goal is a world without nuclear weapons: "A world where Russia, China, and other countries like North Korea, have nuclear weapons, but NATO does not, is simply not a safer world."

He also noted that the Alliance supports the dialogue on arms control agreements between the United States and Russia.
