The head of the Department of Foreign Policy Planning of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Alexei Drobinin, voiced the ideas of the Russian side regarding Europe's new security architecture, and suggested concluding non-aggression agreements with NATO member states.
It should be noted that Volodymyr Medinsky, the chief negotiator from Russia in the talks on Ukraine, said that the new European security system is the main topic of the talks that lasted two days in Abu Dhabi. At the same time, he did not elaborate on what exactly the participants of the meeting discussed.
Some European politicians oppose any discussion of a common European security architecture, and emphasize that agreements must first be reached on progress in settling the war in Ukraine, including a ceasefire. At the same time, American officials made it clear that they are open to such discussions.
