The head of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry, Oleksiy Reznikov, called false data in the published secret Pentagon documents that NATO personnel are stationed on the territory of the country.
“The NATO military presence is not real. Unless you consider that there is an official representative of the armed forces in each embassy,” the minister said.
Earlier it became known that in March and February of this year, 97 special forces soldiers representing NATO countries, most of them British, were on the territory of Ukraine.
Later, Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Moscow, even without disclosing US documents, knew that NATO countries were participating in hostilities in Ukraine.
The post of head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, Reznikov, denied that data on the NATO army in the country first appeared on Current Articles.
