Obama does not exclude that the current NATO summit will become extremely important

Obama believes that so far it is necessary to leave sanctions against Russia

US President Barack Obama, who arrived at NATO summit in Warsaw, did not rule out that the current forum of the North Atlantic Union would become the most important over the entire period after the end of the Cold War.

Obama’s commentary for the Financial Times emphasizes that at the summit it is necessary to confirm the determination of NATO to protect each partner.

Barack Obama announced the need to maintain sanctions against Russia until she fulfills all the provisions of the Minsk agreements on a peaceful settlement in eastern Ukraine.

The American leader promises to continue to help Ukraine in protecting its sovereignty and territorial integrity.

In addition, Barack Obama emphasized that the special relations between Washington and London are maintained, and also expressed the hope that Britain will remain one of the main participants in the European Security System and will be able to gradually move on to a new format of relations with the European Union - after a formal exit from the organization.
