Russia will use a step-by-step plan in negotiations with the US and NATO on security guarantees with arguments that will allow Western countries to understand the risks due to their policies. Senator from Sevastopol Ekaterina Altabaeva told RIA Novosti about this.
“The most convincing argument we put forward is an argument that testifies to our strength. And about the possible risks that the United States and NATO allies expose themselves to by pursuing such an unreasonable and unbalanced policy,” the senator said.
According to Altabayeva, the Russian side has a serious step-by-step plan and "it is naive to believe that there will be no response to such shameless aggressive behavior."
Russia, in order to achieve results in the negotiations on security guarantees, will have to bring serious arguments, not only diplomatic ones, the senator noted.
“You won’t get by with just talking here, serious arguments will be given here, including with a demonstration of your strength,” Altabaeva summed up.
The Russian Foreign Ministry published drafts of a treaty between Russia and the United States on security guarantees and an agreement on measures to ensure the security of the Russian Federation and NATO member states on December 17 last year. In the document, in particular, the parties undertake to eliminate all existing infrastructure for the deployment of nuclear weapons outside their territory, exercise restraint in military planning and not take actions that affect each other's security.
On January 26, the US and NATO handed over to Russia their written responses to Moscow's proposed security guarantees. In statements, they outlined their principles in negotiations with Moscow.
