The Secretary General of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Jens Stoltenberg again warned the Russian Federation that it would face severe consequences if it uses nuclear weapons in the war against Ukraine, reports Anadolu Agency (AA). "The risk of any nuclear attack on Ukraine is low, but, of course, the potential effects, the consequences are very large. So this is a risk that we have to take seriously and we are doing that by making clear to Russia that there will be serious consequences for it if it uses nuclear weapons in Ukraine," Stoltenberg said during a live video address at the 2022 Berlin Foreign Policy Forum. Stoltenberg also said that NATO warned Russia that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought. The Secretary General of NATO reiterated that the military alliance is ready for all possible options when it comes to the Russian war against Ukraine. Stoltenberg ruled out the possibility of activating the NATO nuclear umbrella for Ukraine as a deterrent against Russia, stressing that such a nuclear shield is intended only for member states.

Stoltenberg said that the latest round of Russian missile attacks on major Ukrainian cities is the most serious escalation since the beginning of the war in February."

Defence Secretary Ben Wallace is on a hastily-arranged visit to Washington to talk with his counterpart and White House officials about "shared security concerns" including Ukraine and Russia, a source and an official said.

The secretive, last-minute nature of the trip and a comment by a second defence minister, James Heappey - who said the conversations that Mr Wallace would be having on Tuesday were "beyond belief" - suggested particularly sensitive and serious issues would be discussed.

It comes as the UK, the US and other NATO allies watch Russia's war in Ukraine closely, amid concerns that President Vladimir Putin may escalate his attacks even further, possibly even resorting to a nuclear strike as his forces lose ground to western-armed Ukrainian troops.
The UK defence source declined to offer any specific detail on the content of Mr Wallace's trip other than to say: "The defence secretary is in Washington DC to discuss shared security concerns, including Ukraine.


"He will be visiting his counterpart at the Pentagon and senior figures at the White House."

Brigadier General Patrick Ryder, the US Pentagon press secretary, offered a similar description: "He's here today to discuss the Ukraine situation and the US and UK joint efforts to support Ukraine, as well as to, again, reaffirm the transatlantic ties and co-operation that our two countries share when it comes to issues like Russia."
