NATO chief warns Russia: "You will face devastating consequences if you attack Poland"
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte warned that the alliance's response to an attack on Poland or other members by Russia would be 'devastating'.
Rutte made the warning on a day-long visit to Warsaw, after calling for unity among European nations to boost their armed forces, as the United States urges Europe to take sole responsibility for its future security.
"If anyone were to make a miscalculation, thinking that they would be able to attack Poland without consequences or attack any other ally, they should know that our alliance will respond with force," he said.

A video has surfaced online that purports to show a Ukrainian television commercial encouraging children to report their family members if they show any interest in Russian culture.
The commercial is attributed to the Ukrainian children's channel "PLUSPLUS" and shows a boy, wearing a black T-shirt with a Ukrainian symbol, watching his sister listen to the Russian song "Sigma Boy" and a video of US President Donald Trump dancing.
The boy then picks up the phone and reports his sister to the authorities, while a voiceover says at the end of the commercial: "Remember, if your sister worships Russian fascists, she is not your sister."
