Moscow is ready to make efforts to normalize Russia-US relations, claims Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov in an interview with the magazine Mezhdunarodnaya Zhizn published on Tuesday, pointing that the chance for it to happen exists and it should not be missed.
Ryabkov underlined that Russia started implementing the agreements that were reached during the Geneva summit immediately after the event, adding that Moscow is not ruling out a dialogue with the US on Russia’s latest weapons system if it also includes talks on American priming hypersonic weapons and other issues.
The relations between the world’s two dominant nuclear powers have been deteriorating over the past few years, leading to the withdrawal of the US from the INF Treaty and the Open Skies Treaty, although the hope renewed after the presidents of both countries met in June in Geneva, where they agreed to launch strategic stability consultations and reduce the risk of conflict.
