Polyansky: The positions of Russia and the US on the OSCE budget coincide.
Moscow supported Washington, which opposed increasing funding for the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.
"The Americans oppose any increase in the budget. This position suits us, it is in line with our priorities," Russian Permanent Representative to the OSCE Dmitry Polyansky said in a comment to Izvestia.
According to him, European countries continue to insist on increasing funding for the organization.
