NATO's Anders Fogh Rasmussen: Crimea Tensions 'Greatest Threat' Since Cold War

At the Washington Post, "Russia’s moves in Ukraine are ‘wake-up call,’ NATO’s Rasmussen says in speech":

Russia’s aggression in Ukraine is a “wake-up call” for the Atlantic military alliance and other international institutions that have buttressed European security and stability for decades, NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said Wednesday.

“We live in a different world than we did less than a month ago,” Rasmussen said in a previously scheduled Brookings Institution speech that was adjusted to reflect a sudden crisis that he called Europe’s “gravest threat . . . since the end of the Cold War.”
