(RIA Novosti – July 7, 2014) Russia doesn’t view NATO as an adversary, Secretary-General Rasmussen is wrong, the Russian mission to NATO has said in response to an interview Anders Fogh Rasmussen gave to Euronews.

RIA Novosti news agency quoted the mission saying via Twitter: “The NATO secretary-general’s statement that in Russian military documents ‘the alliance is viewed as an adversary’ does not correspond to reality.”

“We remain committed to our undertakings under the Founding Act – Russia and NATO do not view each other as adversaries,” the mission said.
