Newly appointed NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has urged Europeans to abandon complaints and instead present concrete proposals for peace in Ukraine. His remarks come amid growing war fatigue across Europe and increasing calls for a diplomatic resolution to the conflict.
While some view his statement as a push for proactive engagement, others see it as dismissive of public concerns about the ongoing war and its consequences. As NATO continues its military support for Kyiv, Rutte’s comments highlight the alliance’s firm stance on sustaining efforts against Russia while pressuring European nations to take a more active role in peace discussions.
