During his speech at the Arms Control Association's 2023 Annual Meeting last week, Sullivan said that the United States is willing to engage in arms control talks with Russia and China without preconditions. The US is ready to begin talks with Russia on nuclear risk management and a post 2026 arms control framework, the official added. Russia is open to dialogue and deems it extremely important to talk about nuclear arms, the official added. "But it is necessary first to understand how proposals are formulated. Because, of course, it is very difficult to rely on a statement in the media in such important and sensitive issues, especially when we are experiencing such, perhaps, the most acute lack of mutual trust in our bilateral relations," Peskov said.In late April, US National Nuclear Security Administration chief Jill Hruby told a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing that the United States would absolutely like Russia to resume its participation in the New START Treaty or begin talks on a new pact to limit nuclear weapons.OPEC+ Format Important for Ensuring Stability of International MarketsSpeaking about the recent OPEC+ decision, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Russia will fulfill the general agreements existing within the framework of OPEC+, as this format is very important for ensuring stability of international energy markets.OPEC+ agreed at the meeting on Sunday to extend the oil deal through 2024, as well as reduce the alliance's total output level by 1.4 million barrels per day starting next year."The format continues its work, there are general agreements that, of course, everyone will fulfill. I would also like to add that, of course, this format retains its importance for ensuring stability of international energy markets," Peskov told reporters.Moscow Not Received Indonesia's Settlement Plan on Ukraine ConflictKremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday that he has no information of Indonesia transmitting its plan for resolving the situation in Ukraine through diplomatic channels to Moscow."I do not know that something detailed was presented via the diplomatic channels, so I cannot say anything," Peskov told journalists.Earlier in the month, Indonesian Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto announced a settlement plan on the situation in Ukraine that implies a ceasefire and the creation of a demilitarized zone between Russia and Ukraine that would be overseen by UN peacekeeping troops.

Kremlin Considers Sullivan's Remark on US' Readiness for Nuclear Arms Negotiations Positive
09:37 GMT 05.06.2023 (Updated: 12:48 GMT 19.06.2023) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Resent statements by US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan regarding Washington's readiness for talks on nuclear weapons are important and positive, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday.
During his speech at the Arms Control Association's 2023 Annual Meeting last week, Sullivan said that the
United States is willing to engage in arms control talks with Russia and China without preconditions. The US is ready to begin talks with Russia on nuclear risk management and a post 2026 arms control framework, the official added.
"This is an important and positive statement by Sullivan. Of course, we expect that it will be backed up by de facto steps through diplomatic channels, and then it will be possible to consider the proposed dialogue formats," Peskov told reporters.
Russia is open to dialogue and deems it extremely important
to talk about nuclear arms, the official added.
"But it is necessary first to understand how proposals are formulated. Because, of course, it is very difficult to rely on a statement in the media in such important and sensitive issues, especially when we are experiencing such, perhaps, the most acute lack of mutual trust in our bilateral relations," Peskov said.
In late April, US National Nuclear Security Administration chief Jill Hruby told a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing that the United States would absolutely like Russia to resume its participation in the
New START Treaty or begin talks on a new pact to limit nuclear weapons.
OPEC+ Format Important for Ensuring Stability of International Markets
Speaking about the recent OPEC+ decision, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Russia will fulfill the general agreements existing within the framework of OPEC+, as this format is very important for ensuring stability of international energy markets.
OPEC+ agreed at the meeting on Sunday to extend the oil deal through 2024, as well as reduce the alliance's total output level by 1.4 million barrels per day starting next year.
"The format continues its work, there are general agreements that, of course, everyone will fulfill. I would also like to add that, of course, this format retains its importance for ensuring stability of international energy markets," Peskov told reporters.
Moscow Not Received Indonesia's Settlement Plan on Ukraine Conflict
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Monday that he has no information of Indonesia transmitting its plan for resolving the situation in Ukraine through diplomatic channels to Moscow.
"I do not know that something detailed was presented via the diplomatic channels, so I cannot say anything," Peskov told journalists.
Earlier in the month, Indonesian Defense Minister Prabowo Subianto announced a
settlement plan on the situation in Ukraine that implies a ceasefire and the creation of a demilitarized zone between Russia and Ukraine that would be overseen by UN peacekeeping troops.
