Russia is open to dialogue with the United States on the most critical issues, a Kremlin spokesman said Wednesday.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — A telephone conversation between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart Barack Obama has not been scheduled in the near future, the Kremlin spokesman added.

"As far as I know, there are no plans to hold a telephone conversation in the near future. At the same time, of course, the Russian side continues to remain open to dialogue on the most crucial issues," Dmitry Peskov told reporters in response to a question on whether Putin is going to discuss anti-terrorism efforts or the recent closure of Bulgarian airspace to Russian aircraft with Obama.
