Russia, China slam NATO
China censures NATO over what it calls a completely futile warning in which the Western military alliance declared that Beijing’s power poses a strategic challenge. Beijing warned NATO against hyping up the "China threat", calling on its leaders to abandon the outdated concept. NATO leaders held a two-day summit in Madrid, where they put China in the cross hairs. They said Beijing’s ambitions, policies, and close ties with Russia threaten NATO. Meanwhile in Moscow, President Putin has said there would be no problem if Finland and Sweden joined NATO. The Russian president’s remarks followed an announcement by NATO that it would welcome such a membership. Putin, however, said Russia would respond if Finland and Sweden become a ground for the deployment of NATO troops. The president said it was inevitable that Moscow’s relations with Helsinki and Stockholm would sour after receiving NATO membership.
NATO arms supplies to Ukraine
NATO says it is ready to help Ukraine obtain a wide range of modern military equipment, urging Russia to withdraw its forces from the country. NATO’s Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said Russia’s war against Ukraine was "brutal and absolutely unacceptable". He said Sweden and Finland will sign on Tuesday the NATO accession protocol to formally join the alliance. The comment came two days after NATO member Turkey lifted its veto over the accession.
JCPOA revival talks
The Iranian foreign minister says an agreement is possible over the revival of the 2015 deal, known as the JCPOA, if the United States takes a realistic approach. Hossein Amir-Abdollahian says Iran is resolved to reach a good, strong and lasting agreement. He made the remarks in a phone call with his Qatari counterpart, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani. Amir-Abdollahian said Iran has always taken part in the JCPOA revival negotiations with initiatives aimed at reaching an acceptable agreement. Al Thani, whose country hosted indirect talks between Iran and the US over the removal of anti-Iran sanctions earlier this week, described the talks as constructive and positive. He said Qatar is ready to host further talks until a desirable agreement is reached and all parties return to their commitments under the 2015 deal. The accord was left in tatters after Washington unilaterally quit it in 2018 and reinstated sanctions against Iran.
