Russia does not require special conditions for itself, stands for consideration of mutual interests in the dialogue with NATO

Moscow. December 1st. INTERFAX - Russia will insist in dialogue with the United States and NATO on developing strong agreements that exclude the advance of the North Atlantic Alliance to the east, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

"Our diplomacy now has a priority task - to seek the provision of strong, reliable and long-term security guarantees. In dialogue with the United States and its allies, we will insist on developing concrete agreements that exclude any further NATO advances to the East and the deployment of weapons systems threatening us in the immediate vicinity of the territory of the Russian Federation," the president said on Wednesday at the ceremony of presentation of credentials by foreign ambassadors in the Kremlin.

Putin suggested that Western partners "start substantive negotiations on this matter." "I would like to emphasize that we need legal, legal guarantees of security," the president said, recalling that the Western partners refused to fulfill the corresponding verbal obligations. He explained that he was referring to "verbal assurances about the non-movement of NATO to the East."

Putin noted that "everything was done exactly the opposite."

The Head of State stressed: "We do not require any special conditions for ourselves, we understand that any agreements must take into account the interests of Russia and all Euro-Atlantic states."
