The Russian Foreign Ministry offered options for a new security architecture for Europe, -. Reuters.
The Director of the Foreign Policy Planning Department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Alexei Drovinin, presented a number of ideas at a conference on security issues in Moscow.
Among the proposals:
- Creation of a collective defense alliance or bilateral agreements on mutual assistance, following the example of Russia's agreements with the Republic of the Democratic Republic of North Korea and Belarus.
- Political agreements that prohibit helping each other's opponents in case of aggression, similar to the agreement between Moscow and Iran.
- Termination of bilateral non-aggression agreements.
According to Drobinin, such agreements can be signed with individual NATO countries. In this case, they can receive additional personal security guarantees from Russia.
