There is no sign that Vladimir Putin is preparing for peace in Ukraine, Nato’s secretary-general has said.
“What we see is the opposite. He is preparing for more war, new offensives, and new attacks,” Jens Stoltenberg told a media conference
It comes just days before the one-year anniversary of the Russian invasion.
Ahead of a meeting of Nato defence ministers in Brussels, Mr Stoltenberg urged Western allies to step up their military support.
Ukraine has renewed its calls for fighter jets as the war approaches a “critical” stage.
