Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov assessed the results of Russia’s negotiations with the United States and NATO. According to him, the past discussions have not yet yielded significant results.
“We are expecting written responses from Washington and Brussels to our draft agreements. Based on them, we will make a decision on the advisability of further joint work, ”Antonov’s commentary for the magazine says. Neewsweek dated 15 January.
The diplomat noted that NATO’s efforts aimed at the military development of the former Soviet republics are unacceptable for the Russian side, as this is fraught with the deployment of missile systems and other destabilizing weapons systems. Due to the immediate threat to our country in this case, the risks of escalation and direct military clashes in the region and beyond are increasing.
“Everything has its limits. We are, in fact, on the brink of an abyss,” Antonov emphasized.
According to the Russian ambassador to the United States, last week’s discussions with the United States and NATO have not yet yielded any significant results, but we need to wait for answers to draft agreements from Russia, which is ready to discuss counter proposals.
