Russia rules out nuclear talks with U.S. given its stance on NATO expansion
Russia has dismissed the possibility of nuclear talks with the United States citing Washington's stance on NATO expansion, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Wednesday.
"We see no point in dialogue with Washington without respect for Russia's fundamental interests. First of all, this is the problem of NATO's expansion into the post-soviet space, which poses threats to common security," Zakharova said.
On Tuesday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Russia will not discuss signing a new treaty with the United States to replace an agreement limiting each side's strategic nuclear weapons that expires in 2026 as it needs to be broadened and expanded to cover other states.
