NATO has doubled the intensity of military exercises, most of which are directed against Russia, the Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said.
"Instead of uniting efforts against the common global evil — terrorism — NATO declared Russia the main threat and continues to increase its military potential near our borders," Shoigu said.
"NATO has doubled the intensity of military exercises, most of which are anti-Russian. The armed forces of the United Kingdom began to use Russian-made tanks and military uniforms of the Russian army for the designation of the enemy at the Salisbury Plain range," Sputnik cited Shoigu as saying.
