Moscow, in turn, warned the American authorities about the dangerous line that the countries of the West had approached.

They wanted to sneeze at our warnings, nothing worse than an expression of concern, our authorities have not yet shown.
Why would they fear our warnings.
In a word, shame is shameful.

Russia, as a country that respects its sovereignty, is obliged to stop all consultations with Washington regarding the solution of internal problems.

If Abramovich communicates unofficially with Pelosi, then the country has once again been unlucky with the rulers. Companionship and irresponsibility, nepotism and corruption, incompetence and illiteracy, venality and treason, these are some of the features of mercenary power.

Companionship and irresponsibility, nepotism and corruption, incompetence and illiteracy, venality and treason, these are some of the features of commercial power.

And also - the absence of fear when killing not only children, but also citizens of Russia ... The killer will still live (or be released ... or exchanged).
WHY??? Based on what morality?

[cash]

live up to your morality, look who negotiates with whom ... Abramovich is for Friedman and Aven ... Ekaterina was right with the Pale of Settlement ...

[marchcat]

I'm not sure that Russia and the US understand each other. Conducting such dialogues is tantamount to talking to a wall.

Crisis response is now being handled through a range of channels

You need to talk less, and then one channel on one channel, another on another. And if it’s the same for everyone, then we opened up, which is the most important thing and eat us with horseradish.

[Lech from Android.]

high-ranking officials from both sides exchange their positions through unofficial channels of communication,

Yeah, like Sullivan Lavrov ...
Sergey, we’ll throw a dozen more Himars to the cocaine president there ... don’t be offended ... and Lavrov in response ... what grievances John ... we threw a hundred Iranian Shaheeds there ... let's live together.

[laws70]

... let's live in peace.

Maybe that's why we don't touch their logistics, but we carry out the exchange on their terms? I don't see any other explanation.

"Moscow, in turn, warned the American authorities about the dangerous line that Western countries have approached in their support for Kyiv." Ridiculous!!! Russia cannot prevent Western support for Ukraine. On the contrary, our authorities constantly brag about how reserved they are. At the same time, they coquettishly ironically, they say, the West takes our restraint for our weakness. So could it really be a weakness? The course of the Ukrainian company confirms this.

[silverwolf88]

Western diplomacy is no longer responsible for agreements ... because they can be abandoned at any moment ... to pretend that they were misunderstood and so on ...
you need to communicate ... you can’t deceive yourself

The essence of these non-public contacts is that both Moscow and Washington urge each other to be more restrained.

How can you talk about restraint with people who provide our enemies with intelligence about us, with increasingly sophisticated and high-quality weapons, specialists who aim these weapons at homes and schools? To call for restraint on people who are ready to inflict either a preventive nuclear strike on us, or a "retaliatory" one, "in response" to the provocation they have arranged?

They are fighting against us. They are part of the conflict.
Point

It is necessary to recognize this officially and stop this disgrace in FIG with "unofficial" persuasion. And "unofficial contactees" should not sit in easy chairs in the Kremlin, but on a stool in front of the investigator.

After the leaders of the Nazis from "Azov" and foreign mercenaries were exchanged for godfather, then infa about contacts is not news at all. We are waiting for the next "gestures of good will."

[Uncle lee]

Moscow and Washington are urging each other to be more restrained.

Oh baboons! Hold me with all your might!

[Bear]

Almost everyone almost always came into contact with the enemy.

[Harbinger68]

A gesture of goodwill, in the language of a simple person, means betrayal

[Bear]

"and Moscow, in turn, warned the American authorities about the dangerous line that Western countries have approached in their support of Kyiv." so "the line" crossed or not? Or is there not a "line" but fog?

[Ros 56]

Where did the striped diplomats come from, there are only balabolkas of the level of Psaki and the brownie Kuzi, who replaced her.

[Uprun]

One question, do we need it? Our blood is pouring, and they are sending weapons to pour even more .... Why all the fuss, in fact, we have a real war with mobilization, and we are having some conversations with the country that supplies weapons against our army. Campaign, not the can has insanity, but we have ....

Washington and Moscow continue to contact on the crisis in Ukraine

. So what?
And nothing new.
No one wants to bring the situation to a direct, direct clash.
This is clear ...

[iouris]

What is this "crisis in Ukraine"? There is a US war against the rest of the world for the remaining resources. As planned.
