NATO chief Rutte reaffirms support for Ukraine

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has reaffirmed the need to step up support for Ukraine.

He said that it was vital Russia did not win as it could result in Russian President Vladimir Putin ‘high fiving’ the leaders of North Korea and China.

“We really have to step up and not scale back our support for Ukraine,”Rutte told an event dealing with the topic of Ukraine at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

“The frontline is moving in the wrong direction,” Rutte said.
