NATO chief calls for calm between Russia, Turkey
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has called on all parties to be prudent and to contribute to reducing tensions after Turkey downed a Russian jet it says violated its airspace.
Stoltenberg says the situation is serious, but that he hopes for renewed contacts between Turkey and Russia.
He says the assessments of other NATO members supported the Turkish version of events.
NATO deputy spokesperson Carmen Romero adds that “NATO is monitoring the situation closely” and are in close contact with Turkish authorities.
