The senior Russian diplomat added this Friday in an interview for the aif.ru site, that making concessions to Washington “would be giving it a very powerful excuse for it to drastically increase pressure on Moscow.”
A serious conversation between the two countries will be possible if the United States matures to maintain it, but “strictly on the basis of a balance of interests” and a very careful analysis of what Russia gains from one or another agreement with Washington, the Russian vice-chancellor specified. .
In addition, Riabkov drew attention to the dialogue with the US embassy in Moscow, including with the head of the diplomatic mission, Linne Tracy, and noted that “the talks are very complicated, since there are few common issues to reach some kind of solution, if there is one.
“Disputes, exchange of blows and mutual accusations are the norm of today’s life. We face each other both in public and behind closed doors. The situation is difficult, but Tracy knows the place where she works well, as they say in diplomatic jargon, ”Ryabkov noted.
“The US ambassador has relevant experience. Let’s hope that, at least, she will help them to assess what is happening and warn Washington of the growing risks of what is happening”, summed up the deputy head.
