The purpose of the Russian strike was “to intimidate civilians in Ukraine and intimidate those who support Ukraine.”
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte responded to the Oreshnik launch on the Dnieper by assuring that the bold attack would not deter allies from their support for Ukraine. This is how he answered the BBC’s question.
“This does not prevent the allies from supporting Ukraine,” stressed the Secretary General of NATO, commenting on the recent threats of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
Rutte said the aim of the strike was “to intimidate civilians in Ukraine and to intimidate those who support Ukraine.”
He recalled that the NATO Council discussed the attack last week, and the allies confirmed that they would continue to support Ukraine.
Let’s recall that Putin said that the “decision-making centers” in Kyiv could be the next targets for the Oreshnik medium-range ballistic missile, which was used by Russian troops in the attack on the Dnieper on November 21.
ISW later noted that there was nothing particularly new about the Oreshnik rocket’s capabilities. The use of this type of weapons will not lead to Russia’s escalation in the war.
