Deputy Prime Minister of Russia Andrei Belousov said that Moscow proposes to agree with NATO on measures to de-escalate. In particular, we are talking about a mutual decline in military activity along the borders of the Russian Federation.

At a meeting of the First Committee of the UN General Assembly, Belousov, who is also the Deputy Head of the Russian Delegation, the Deputy Representative of the Russian Federation to the UN and other international organizations in Geneva, said “further voluntary transparency measures” were now useful.

Belousov emphasized that steps were needed at this time to improve the situation and also to focus on good faith in the implementation of existing agreements, including the Vienna Document. “

As a result, Russia proposes to agree on measures to escalate, including mutual restrictions on military activity along the borders of the Russian Federation and NATO countries. It is also about “improving mechanisms for preventing incidents and dangerous military activities.” In Moscow, relations between the Russian Federation and the West are complicated.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that from November 1, the Russian Federation would suspend the work of its mission in NATO and also end the work of the Alliance Information Office in Moscow. These are retaliatory measures by the Russian Federation to withdraw the accreditation of eight Russian diplomats.
