Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev commented on the statement of US President Joe Biden in his Telegram channel that his administration is ready to negotiate with Russia on an arms control system that should replace START-3.
According to Medvedev, more than a month ago he wrote that the United States would “come crawling with this topic”, since strategic security issues are extremely important for Americans.
“Well, that’s it. They came crawling,” said the deputy head of the Russian Security Council.
At the same time, Medvedev stressed that now the situation is much worse than the Cold War, which Biden mentioned when talking about the search for compromises.
“Much worse! And we are not to blame for it,” Medvedev added.
“Well, the main thing… Do we even need it? The world has become different,” Medvedev summed up.
