German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier has criticized NATO for having a bellicose policy towards Russia, describing it as warmongering, the German daily Bild reported.
Steinmeier pointed to the deployment of NATO troops near borders with Russia in the military alliances Baltic and east European member states.
What we should avoid today is inflaming the situation by warmongering and stomping boots, Steinmeier told Bild in an interview to be published Sunday.

Frank-Walter????When did these fools start with the hyphenated first names?
I guess when the hyphenated last names went out of style.
If you think that's bad, just wait awhile. Soon you'll be seeing names like Frank-Ahmed.
They used NATO to destroy Libya. I remember the media constantly telling us that was a NATO mission; I wasn’t aware that NATO was an offensive alliance rather than defensive.
What a shithead! His freedom growing up in West-Germany was provided by 250,000 US soldiers guarding it.
There has been exactly one time NATO member invoked Article 5. It was the USA after 9/11. Libya bombing was not due to NATO treaty. France just wanted it and Obama decided to oblige.
Matos mission ended 25 years ago. It’s a perfect example of a government bureaucracy that never dies
Kill it and let the euro-fascists pay themselves to protect their own leftist social engineering schemes
You do know that any EU military is going to be an offensive force, right? That is the decades-old plan.
Frank-Ahmed!What got into your mother to give you a name like that?Oh,wait....
NATO has outlived its usefulness.
“His freedom growing up in West-Germany was provided by 250,000 US soldiers guarding it.”
Well that clearly means NATO should move up to the Russian border. Odd reasoning.
That light at the end of the tunnel is Europe burning.
Because Obama helped destroy it?
An EU military will be no friend to the USA.
Once the USSR fell and the Warsaw Pact was dissolved NATO lost its primary reason to exist.
Instead of adapting to the reduced state of tension NATO embarked on a senseless expansion that fed Russian paranoia and heightened tensions.
Since then, NATO has been creating more problems than they resolve.
In fact, beginning with Bill Clinton's Bosnia disaster, NATO bears a lot of the responsibility for the muslim invasion of Europe.
Proving once again that "Idle Hands Are The Devil's Workshop".
Russia has attacked Romania, Georgia and Ukraine. They are obviously trying to build the Russian empire again.
Why are you supporting Russian shits subjugating others?
Fulda Gap was at the border of Russian empire. Reagan freed over hundred million from Russian slavery.
You posted: “Why are you supporting Russian shits subjugating others?”
Please tell me where you read that I supported Russia or the Russian actions you refer to?
You have made an assumption that is not based on anything I posted.
To be more accurate, NATO was co-opted by the EU to aid its own expansion. Clinton helped a revanchist military campaign in the Balkans.
If such politicians as Steinmeier are talking against NATO, that means they’re ready to replace it with their long-wished-for EU military, with which they intend to stick a fork in Pax Americana.
yep......
