Top Russian diplomat predicts 'difficult' Moscow-Washington talks as both sides set firm lines ahead of high-stakes security talks on Ukraine
Moscow sees"difficult" talks with Washington over Ukraine and NATO as US warns of the risk of confrontation and Russia rules out concessions.
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov and other Russian officials met on Sunday for over two hours with US Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman, the head of the US delegation, and her team at the luxury residence of the US ambassador to the Conference on Disarmament that overlooks Lake Geneva.
US State Department spokesman Ned Price said that during Sunday's dinner Sherman "stressed the United States' commitment to the international principles of sovereignty, territorial integrity, and the freedom of sovereign nations to choose their own alliances," a reference to Ukraine and its aspirations of joining NATO.
Russian President Vladimir Putin's government has laid out a list of demands, such as seeking guarantees that the NATO military alliance won't seek to expand any further eastward to countries like Ukraine or Georgia, which are former Soviet republics.
