Putin has, however, warned the US against escalating Russia sanctions policy. |
In a statement released after the phone talks between the Russian leader and his US counterpart, the Kremlin revealed that Biden made a pledge to Putin not to deploy offensive arms to Ukraine. | |
“Biden made it clear that the US does not intend to deploy offensive strike weapons in Ukraine,” Yuri Ushakov, Putin's foreign policy adviser, said speaking to the Russian media. | |
Ushakov pointed out that this was also one of the goals Moscow hopes to achieve with its proposals for security guarantees to the US and NATO. | |
During a 50-minute talk Putin once again outlined the main principles of Russia's security proposals that envision a ban on NATO’s expansion eastward. The Russian leader reportedly stressed that any potential deal with the West should include legally-binding guarantees of Russia’s security, with Ushakov noting that Biden appeared to have taken the demand "quite seriously.” | |
Ushakov revealed that the upcoming security talks will be held in three parallel formats: at the Russia-US level in Geneva, at the Russia-NATO level in Brussels, and at the level of the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) in Vienna. | |
