Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said his country is in a new
cold war with the U.S. and its allies, while NATO’s chief said Russia is
using its nuclear arsenal to intimidate Europe.
The clash, with
echoes of superpower rhetoric during the 20th century, played out at the
Munich Security Conference on Saturday even as Russia, Europe and the
U.S. say they’re seeking to end Syria’s civil war, resolve the armed
standoff in eastern Ukraine and make progress toward lifting European
economic sanctions against Russia.
“The political line of NATO
toward Russia remains unfriendly and closed,” Medvedev said in a speech
to the conference. “It can be said more sharply: We have slid into a
time of a new cold war.”
While
Medvedev renewed Russian accusations of encirclement by western powers,
the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s Secretary General, Jens
Stoltenberg, challenged President Vladimir Putin to stop threatening
nations around Russia’s borders with warnings about his nuclear-weapons
capability.
“Russia’s rhetoric, posture and exercises of its
nuclear forces are aimed at intimidating its neighbors, undermining
trust and stability in Europe,” Stoltenberg told the conference earlier.
“We strive for a more constructive and more cooperative relationship
with Russia.”

"... It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings."....I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
