NATO's secretary-general said Tuesday he is confident that both the Western military alliance and Russia "will act in a respectable way" as the two sides hold drills in the same area in waters off Norway's coast.

Jens Stoltenberg said Tuesday as he attended the Trident Juncture war games in his native Norway that "this is not a Cold War situation," stressing it is "purely to prevent, not to provoke."
There also are 65 ships, 250 restoring Norway's sovereignty after an aircraft and 10,000 vehicles in a hypothetical scenario that involves attack by a "fictitious aggressor."
