Good afternoon.

We just conducted a meeting of the NATO-Russia Council.

It was a useful meeting with frank and open discussions.

Ukraine was the first item on our agenda. And this is important because Russia’s actions in Ukraine have undermined Euro-Atlantic security.

Allies and Russia have profound and persistent disagreements on the crisis.

There was not a meeting of minds today.

But it was an opportunity to clarify our positions and to exchange views on the crisis in Ukraine.

Allies expressed the views that they set out at the Summit in Warsaw. 

NATO Allies do not and will not recognise Russia’s illegal and illegitimate annexation of Crimea.

We should all work towards the settlement of the conflict in eastern Ukraine by diplomatic and peaceful means. 

Doing this would allow Ukraine to develop free from violent outside interference.

And it would contribute to an overall improvement in relations between NATO and Russia. 

We then discussed military activities, transparency and risk reduction.

Everyone around the table today has a responsibility to ensure that our relations are characterised by predictability, confidence and stability.

We have rules for military activities, both bilateral and multilateral.

We have all worked hard to develop them over the years.

We should respect both the letter and the spirit of those rules. 

Transparency and risk reduction is particularly important if we are to avoid incidents, accidents and misunderstandings.

So in the spirit of transparency, NATO  briefed Russia on the important decisions we took in Warsaw last week to enhance our security.

Russia briefed on the steps they are taking.

Russia also raised a proposal on air safety in the Baltic Sea.

Allies will study this proposal carefully.

I welcome that Russia has signalled that it wants to pursue risk reduction measures.

This is something allies have been advocating for a long time, so I look forward to further discussions on this issue with Russia. 

Finally, we discussed the security situation in Afghanistan, including the regional terrorist threat.

Afghan security forces continue to do their job with remarkable resilience and courage.

But challenges remain.

I informed the Council about NATO’s decision at the Warsaw Summit to sustain our military presence in Afghanistan beyond 2016 with approximately the current troop levels. 

I also reported to the NATO-Russia Council on our commitment to continue to fund the Afghan security forces until 2020.

And I underlined that President Ghani and Chief Executive Abdulla at our Summit in Warsaw reiterated the commitment to reform.

For almost 20-years, the NATO-Russia Council has been an important forum for dialogue.

It is an all-weather forum.

Today we had very useful discussions.

We addressed some of the most important issues on the Euro-Atlantic security agenda.

This shows the value of the NATO-Russia Council.

Dialogue is particularly important in the current circumstances.

Our dialogue will continue.

And with that I am ready to take your questions.
