Press conference with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and the Prime Minister of Estonia Kaja Kallas and the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Boris Johnson, Estonia, 1 March 2022.

🗣 | NATO Secretary General:

Prime Minister Kallas,
Prime Minister Johnson,
Dear Kaja,
Dear Boris.
It is great to be with you here at Tapa.

It is great to be back.
And we are here to meet the soldiers that are defending Estonia, our Alliance, and our values.

These soldiers are keeping our nations safe and free.
And we owe them a debt of gratitude.

Thank you to Estonia for hosting our battlegroup so well.
And being such a staunch NATO Ally.

Let me also thank the United Kingdom and you, Boris, for leading this NATO multinational battlegroup here at the Tapa base, in Estonia.
And for doing so for the last five years.
And also for doubling your contribution over the last few weeks, with more British troops coming to Estonia.
This really makes a huge difference.
And demonstrates NATO’s solidarity.

We stand together in this time of crisis.
The people of Ukraine are fighting bravely against a brutal and unprovoked Russian invasion.
We utterly condemn the Kremlin’s war.

Allies are imposing severe costs on Russia through sanctions.
We are increasing NATO presence across the Alliance, to deter and to defend.
And we are stepping up our support to help Ukraine defend itself.

NATO Allies are sending Ukraine anti-tank weapons, air-defence missiles, and ammunition.
Allies are also providing millions of euros worth of financial help and humanitarian aid.
I commend Estonia and the United Kingdom for the assistance you are providing to Ukraine.

Over the last weeks, in response to Russia’s attack on Ukraine,
we have increased our defensive presence.
In the air, on land, and at sea.
With over 100 jets at high alert operating from 30 different locations.
And over 120 ships from the Baltic Sea to the Mediterranean.

The UK, the US, and other Allies are deploying thousands more troops to the eastern part of the Alliance.  
For the first time in our history, we are deploying the NATO Response Force.
Because there must be no doubt, no room for miscalculation or misunderstanding.
Our commitment to Article 5 of the Washington Treaty is iron-clad.
We will protect and defend every inch of NATO territory.
Credible deterrence prevents conflict and preserves peace.

NATO is a defensive Alliance.
We do not seek conflict with Russia.
Our message to President Putin is: stop the war, pull out all your forces from Ukraine, and engage in good faith in diplomatic efforts.
The world stands with Ukraine in calling for peace.

So, Kaja and Boris, it is great to be with you here again.
And we stand together in the Alliance, united in our condemnation of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
