MOSCOW, 28 December 2021, (TON): Russian diplomats and military officials will take part in talks with the United States in January on a list of security guarantees Moscow wants from Washington amid simmering tension between the pair over Ukraine.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in an interview live-streamed on his ministry’s website “the talks will take place immediately after the country’s New Year holidays.”
There was no immediate comment on Lavrov’s remarks from Washington.
Russia has unnerved Ukraine and Kyiv’s Western allies with a recent buildup of tens of thousands of troops along the two countries’ shared border, the second such move this year, raising concerns Moscow may be plotting an imminent invasion of its neighbour.
But the Kremlin has denied that it plans to make an incursion into Ukraine.
