Russia has to react as NATO moves closer to its borders - Medvedev

Russia cannot see NATO expansion towards its borders as positive, as
under certain circumstances the possibility of military confrontation
remains, the Russian PM has said at the Euro-Arctic Council’s forum.When a reporter asked Dmitry Medvedev how the balance of forces in Europe will change if Sweden and Finland decide to enter NATO, the Russian Prime Minister answered that his country would have to react to such developments.
“This is their own business; they are making decisions in accordance with the national sovereignty doctrine. But we have to consider the fact that for us the NATO bloc is not simply some estranged organisation, but a structure with military potential,” the head of the Russian government said adding that under certain unfavorable scenarios this potential could be used against Russia.
