Stoltenberg discussed the INF Treaty with Putin

24
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg discussed with the Russian leader Vladimir Putin accusations against Russia in violation of the INF Treaty, reports TASS with reference to the Alliance representative Oan Lungescu.





It is noted that Stoltenberg himself raised this topic in Paris, where he and Putin took part in celebrations marking the 100 anniversary of the end of the First World War.

According to Lunescu, in a conversation with the Russian president, the NATO secretary general "raised the issue of the INF Treaty and the importance of ensuring full compliance with this treaty."

Later, Putin, answering journalists' questions, recalled that the Americans want to withdraw from the Treaty on the Elimination of Intermediate-Range and Shorter-Range Missiles, but in Moscow they are ready for dialogue.

He noted that this is not Russia withdrawing from the treaty, but the United States. However, both Washington and Moscow are determined to resume the dialogue. At the same time, it is more important to conduct a dialogue not at the highest level, but at the level of experts, Putin added, expressing hope for the restoration of a full-scale negotiation process.

DRSM entered into force in June 1988 of the year. In recent years, the United States has repeatedly accused Russia of violating the provisions of the document. Moscow disagrees with these allegations and makes counterclaims.

In October, Donald Trump announced that the United States is quitting the INF mode, as Russia, according to the president, does not want to comply with it. China and Germany criticized Trump’s statement. But Britain and NATO supported him, placing the responsibility for the decision of the American president on Moscow.

      And why are they silent on chemical weapons?
      Russia has long since eliminated everything at home. But NATO is not in a hurry. Well, yes, White Helmets need to be equipped with something.

      Negotiations will not lead to anything good. Americans will demand to increase the bar from 500 to 1000, a threat will grow from the Baltic. It is time to move on to ultimatums - the appearance of any NATO units or armaments threatening the Russian Federation on the territory of the former Soviet republics will mean an immediate occupation of their territories by the Russian army. Then, decide for yourself, war is war, but we will not allow approaching Moscow. Roughly, but somehow.

        good plan. But I propose immediately not to move the troops, but to strike by air and missiles, destroying the threat. One Middle Eastern state does just that, and everyone in the world agrees with it.

    There is a revolutionary situation. Some cannot live according to new realities, the other side does not want to live according to the old

    He noted that this is not Russia exiting the treaty, but the United States.

    That's it. And all sane people understand why. And Stoltenberg apparently tried to probe the topic, what a surprise awaits the United States after withdrawing from the treaty.

    The INF Treaty with NATO needs to be discussed in only one way - all NATO countries join it.

      Most likely, this should be at the loss of the whole world. Today, technology has spread widely around the world. And one can expect from any more or less developed country the development of an arsenal of medium-range missiles.

      Stoltenberg simply reminds the political "public" of himself in the new historically formed and changing world situation. Namely, under Macrone-"Banopart" the old "audience-fans" would not forget about him.

    Sorry. With what kind of clowns the GDP does not have to communicate, the most difficult thing in this matter is to remain calm, not to send and not to be muzzled, and probably sometimes you want to.

    Reagan came to Moscow to negotiate. All the way. We arranged for him and our girl for the night.
    She satisfied him so much as he had never experienced before. "Ask - says - for that, whatever you want!" And she, so languid: "Take the Pershing out of Europe"

    and he came out to discuss something with the president of a nuclear power? I took it straight and discussed, yeah, who will talk to you, bullshit ... I’ve probably caught a catch near the latrine and got the hang of it, even a retired Negro didn’t disdain something like that, not to mention Sumerians

    They turned gray, drank tea, ate cookies, talked for life, for women ... We sighed, looked at Trump's photo and quietly parted ... We need to discuss with Trump, everything else is empty talk.
