The focus of the negotiations between Russians and NATO members last Wednesday, the 12th, in Vienna, was on Russia’s demands that Ukraine not join NATO, but the meeting failed to ease the impasse over the Kremlin’s demands, which maintains troops mobilized at the border with Ukraine.
Among the demands made by the Kremlin are a promise that Ukrainians will never become NATO members and the withdrawal of troops from former socialist republics that joined the alliance after the Cold War.
In return, the US demands that Russia stop military movements near the border with Ukraine.
The deputy chancellor emphasized that Washington and NATO rejected Moscow’s main demand: a guarantee that the alliance will not incorporate Ukraine and other former Soviet nations. He added that the significant differences in the strategies of both sides cast doubt on the continuity of the negotiations.
Tension Between The United States And Russia Has Raised Alarm Bells Worldwide
At a press conference, the Kremlin spokesman also said that there could be a complete rupture of relations between Washington and Moscow if the United States proceeds with sanctions against Putin and other Russian civilian and military leaders.
The talks are taking place at a time when about 100,000 Russian soldiers, along with tanks and heavy military equipment, are concentrated near Ukraine’s eastern border. The buildup has raised deep concerns in Kiev and the West that Moscow is preparing for an invasion. Russia denies this and, in turn, accuses the West of threatening its security by positioning personnel and military equipment in Central and Eastern Europe.
The growing tension between the two world powers has raised alarm bells worldwide.
The Polish Foreign Minister, who has taken over the presidency of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), mediator of the negotiations, stated that the risk of conflict is the highest in the last thirty years.
“For several weeks, we have faced the possibility of a major military escalation in Eastern Europe,” he said.
“We must focus on a peaceful resolution of the conflict within and around Ukraine,” he added, calling for “full respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity within its internationally recognized borders.”
