MOSCOW, 04 December 2022, (TON): Russia hopes a pledge it signed Monday with four other global nuclear powers to prevent atomic weapons spreading will reduce world tensions, while saying a summit of permanent Security Council members remains necessary.
Moscow’s foreign ministry said in a statement “we hope that, in the current difficult conditions of international security, the approval of such a political statement will help reduce the level of international tensions.”
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told the RIA Novosti news agency that Moscow still considered a summit between the world’s major nuclear powers to be “necessary.”
The rare joint statement was signed by China, France, Russia, the UK and the United States. It pledged to ensure a nuclear war is never fought.
