Russian ambassador to US to fly to Moscow for consultations on March 20
STEPANAKERT, MARCH 18 , ARTSAKHPRESS: "Russian Ambassador to the US Anatoly Antonov will fly to Moscow for consultations on March 20. He will hold meetings at the Russian foreign ministry and other government agencies to discuss ways of correcting the Russian-US ties, which are now in a crisis," the embassy wrote on its Facebook account.
According to the embassy, the current crisis in relations between Russia and the United States stems from Washington’s policy and certain statements by US senior officials pose threats of collapse to the bilateral ties.
"The current situation stems from Washington’s deliberate policy. As a matter of fact, Washington has been deliberately driving bilateral cooperation to a dead end in the recent years. The US administration’s non-constructive policy towards our country is in the interest of neither Russia nor the United States and certain reckless statements of US senior officials pose a threat of utter collapse to bilateral relations, which are already excessively confrontational," the embassy wrote.
