Russia US relations are approaching the dangerous line September 5 September 5

Russian-US relations are in a deplorable state and are approaching a dangerous line, Moscow’s Ambassador to Washington Anatoly Antonov said today.

What is happening in Ukraine is just a trigger to uncover all the underlying problems that exist in today’s world, Antonov said in a comment published by Russian TV channel Perviy Kanal on Thursday.

The diplomat pointed out that today we are talking about tectonic changes on the international stage and in this context Washington is trying to defend the world order it has created in its own interest, but Russia is not satisfied with the rules of the game, which they are trying to to enforce it.

According to the Russian ambassador, the two countries have not yet reached the “maximum point of tension that existed 60 years ago” (with the then Soviet Union).

At the same time, he assured that it was important for Moscow to maintain exchanges with Washington on arms control.

“For us, the importance of interaction between the two major nuclear powers is self-evident, and building trust and security is fundamental in the national interest of the peoples of Russia, the United States and the world,” Antonov stressed.

The diplomat believes that in the current situation of global security challenges, Moscow and Washington need to return to dialogue and interaction. (Latin press)
