"Oh, I'm not going to react to everything Putin says. We saw him in military uniform, dressed as a soldier on the front, but not on the front. The day before yesterday it was quite far from the front. So I'm not going to react to everything," NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said in response to a request to comment after "yesterday Putin again threatened Europe with war."

Recall

On December 2, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin threatened Europe with war, and also stressed that in the event of war, "a situation could very quickly arise in which we have no one to negotiate with."
