Russia is unlikely to be pleased with the US response to its security guarantees, since they will not meet its initial requirements. A professor of international politics of Warika University (England) of Worm Grand in conversation with “Tape.ru” was predicted to such a reaction of Moscow.
Political scientist found it difficult to say what time steps Russia can do in this case. At the same time, he stressed that the interest of the United States in continuing negotiations is a positive signal. “It seems to me that it is always good when the dialogue continues,” said Grant.
Earlier, the Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Moscow expects to receive an answer from Washington this week. He said that, depending on its content, decisions will be made on further actions and relevant recommendations were developed.
Before that, the US State Department representative of Ned Price said that Washington was not ready to make concessions for a number of Russian security guarantees, in particular on the issue of NATO open-door policies. At the same time, the price stressed that any steps of Washington should be mutual. According to him, “Russia will also have to do something in order to ensure security.”
