CND condemns Commons report's 'cold war thinking'

THE Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) condemned a new parliamentary report yesterday for “ratcheting up tensions” between Nato and Russia and urged an end to “cold war thinking.”

CND general secretary Kate Hudson slammed this week’s Commons defence committee report that called for Nato to beef-up its military presence in eastern Europe. 

Proposals include stationing military equipment in the Baltic states, establishing new command structures and the consideration of a standing reserve force.
