UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace will meet fellow Nato defence ministers in Brussels today as efforts continue to prevent a war in Ukraine.
The Defence Secretary will join Nato Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin amid ongoing tensions in eastern Europe as the alliance considers its response to the 130,000 Russian troops massing at Ukraine’s borders.
The meeting comes after President Putin said yesterday that Russia did not want another war, and was open to further dialogue with the US and its Nato allies.
