“The architecture of strategic stability is rapidly collapsing, NATO is refusing to constructively consider our proposals to de-escalate tensions and prevent dangerous incidents. On the contrary, the military infrastructure of the alliance is being brought closer to the Russian borders. A nightmare scenario of a military confrontation is returning,” Lavrov said at a meeting of the 28th OSCE Ministerial Council.
Lavrov added that Moscow will insist on the development of agreements that will exclude NATO’s advance to the east.
Mr Lavrov also touched upon the issue of the functioning of Russian and US embassies.
“The problems faced by Russian diplomats in the United States, and in response, we were forced to strive to create similar comparable conditions for American diplomats in our country … I believe that this is one of those topics that can be resolved very quickly and send a signal that we can still come to an agreement,” Russia’s top diplomat said.
