"The delegation includes representatives of Rosatom, who are conducting specific negotiations with their colleagues on this issue. We have achieved certain results — we are talking about our very important promising development, which is already working today," Shoigu said.

In addition, the Secretary of the Security Council of the Russian Federation touched upon the topic of the agreement between the Russian Federation and The United States on strategic offensive arms reduction.

"Any mechanism requires supervision and repair or maintenance. In this case, this mechanism is so complex that it requires constant attention and care. Naturally, when people come into this mechanism with a crowbar and try to regulate it with bad tools, this leads to failures," he said.

Shoigu recalled that the agreement on the reduction of strategic offensive arms expires in February 2026. According to him, the decision to extend or conclude a new document will depend on the new administration of the American leader Donald Trump."https://iz.ru/tag/donald-tramp " target="_blank">Trump.

In addition, he noted that the position of the Russian side, voiced during the presidency of Joe Biden, remains "clear and understandable."

"We outlined it during the previous Biden administration, which extended it for another five years. Five years expire in a year, so this is one of the problems," he said.

February 24, the President of Russia Vladimir Putin said that the United States and Russia We could have agreed on a 50% reduction in armaments. He also allowed Beijing to join the deal Moscow and Washington.
