ATHENS (Sputnik) – Moscow is concerned over NATO’s current course leading to deterioration of security situation in Europe, and is waiting for a concrete response from the alliance on Russia’s initiatives to resume the dialogue, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Wednesday.
“We have repeatedly stated that we do not want to slam the door. There are no insoluble problems in our relations with the West under the condition that there is a will… we are waiting from NATO for a concrete response on our initiatives on resumption of cooperation,” Lavrov said in the University of Piraeus in Athens.
Lavrov stressed also that “NATO’s course of containing Russia causes great concern, as it leads to the disruption of strategic stability on the European continent.”
