All attempts by Moscow to urge Washington to constructive dialogue have not yielded results. It's time to change the tone, official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova. "For several decades we have been asking and proposing practical measures of interaction. I remember how a conference on missile defense was going to be held 5-6 years ago with the participation of all, with calculations, and the main focus was on how to find a way out so that the security system was shared. From the American colleagues again, nothing, "- she said on the air of the radio station" Says Moscow ". As a result, the patience of the Russian authorities has burst. And Russian President Vladimir Putin made it clear, announcing on Thursday, March 1, a message to the Federal Assembly. Meanwhile, one must understand that Russia does not put forward any ultimatums. "We never have a door," Zakharova stressed.. - Yesterday it was said that all our attempts to invite (USA) to the conversation were futile. We are ready for a qualitatively different conversation. It will be a conversation from other positions, "the diplomat said..

At the same time, she rejected the suggestion that Putin's speech only aggravated relations between the countries: "Have you read the nuclear concept of the US the last one?" What other rhetoric can be said if Russia is designated as a threat there. We have always been elevated to the rank of the enemy, all the time were some kind of mythical threat, "Zakharova stressed.. The day before, the President reported on the latest developments of Russian weapons, pointing out that the growing military power of the country is the guarantor of peace on Earth.
