MOSCO (Sputnik) — The Washington Post earlier reported that the Obama administration had proposed a new agreement to the Russian government that would deepen military cooperation between the two countries in fight against terrorists in Syria.
"They have not arrived yet, but we saw the reports. We will carefully study the proposals when and if we receive them," Ryabkov said.
"We have been urging the US to deepen cooperation in fight against terrorism for a long time, but haven't got an adequate response from Washington so far. Let's see what's going to happen this time," the diplomat stressed.
The US Department of State declined to discuss ongoing diplomatic conversations with Russia.
