Moscow. February 17. INTERFAX - The growing military activity of NATO near the borders of the Russian Federation is alarming, and ultimatum demands to Russia to withdraw troops from certain areas of its own territory are unacceptable, according to the written response of the Russian Federation to the United States on the issue of security guarantees.
"The growing military activity of the United States and NATO directly at the Russian borders is alarming, while our "red lines" and fundamental security interests, as well as Russia's sovereign right to protect them, continue to be ignored," the document said on Thursday.
