#Repost @kyivindependent_official with @use.repost_ . . . NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte will visit Washington on July 14-15, the military alliance’s press service announced on July 13.
The visit comes as U.S. President Donald Trump previously said he intends to make a “major” announcement on Russia on July 14, potentially signifying a major policy shift on the war in Ukraine as relations with the Kremlin sour.
“I think I’ll have a major statement to make on Russia on Monday,” Trump told NBC News on July 10, without elaborating on the nature of the statement. “I’m disappointed in Russia, but we’ll see what happens over the next couple of weeks,” Trump added.
Although NATO’s press service did not state the purpose of Rutte’s visit, Trump told NBC News that the U.S. had struck a new arrangement with NATO, to transfer American weapons to Ukraine.
