Russia This Thursday, he regretted the request of the Argentine authorities to become a “global member” of the I’LL TAKE and stated that this initiative will not contribute to the security of the world, although he assured that he does not plan to “reconsider” his relationship with the South American country.
“We regret it,” said the Russian deputy foreign minister Sergei Ryabkov at the TASS agency.
“That will definitely not give anyone more security, but rather it will create new ways of subordinating sovereign states”said Riabkov in reference to the US, “the hegemonic leader of NATO”.
However, he assured that Moscow does not plan to review its ties with Buenos Aires as a result of the new circumstances.
“I do not think that due to the announcement that Argentina seeks to obtain the status (of global partner of the Atlantic Alliance) we will have to reconsider and change our entire agenda”he assured.
In this sense, he added that Russia and Argentina maintain good dialogue in many areas and will continue to discuss bilateral issues on a regular basis.
The Argentine Minister of Defense, Luis Petristated this Thursday that his country has asked to be a “global partner” of NATO in the framework of a meeting held with the deputy secretary general of the multilateral organization, Mircea Geoana.
Argentina’s approach to NATO is linked to the new foreign policy developed by the ultraliberal Government Javier Mileywhich has as references USA e Israel. The Argentine president maintains a hostile attitude towards countries with histories of non-democratic practices such as Russia, China e Iran.
In addition to the recent visit to Argentina of the commander of the United States Southern Command, Army General Laura Richardsonwith the aim of expanding defense collaboration, the southern country is clearly aligned with Israel, both in the war and in Gaza Strip against the armed wing of Hamas as in the recent crisis unleashed with Iran.
