Kremlin says it would take more time to review the written response from U.S. to its security demands
Russia said on Thursday the U.S. had shown it was not willing to address Moscow's main security concerns, set out during their standoff over Ukraine, but that both sides had an interest in continuing dialogue.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Moscow, which has massed troops near Ukraine, would not rush to draw conclusions after Washington formally responded to Russian proposals for are drawing of post-Cold War security arrangements in Europe.
Describing tensions on the continent as reminiscent of the Cold War, Mr. Peskov said it would take time for Moscow to review Wednesday's response from Washington. But he said U.S. and NATO statements that Russia's main demands were unacceptable did not leave much room for optimism.
