Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that Moscow is willing to formally confirm in writing that it has “no plans to attack Europe,” calling Western claims of a potential Russian attack “nonsense” and “a direct lie.”
Speaking about discussions with U.S. negotiators, Putin said a list of 28 proposed points had been reviewed and could serve as a basis for future agreements. He criticized Western politicians for allegedly using fears of a Russian assault to boost defense spending or political ratings.
Putin also discussed broader issues of European security, strategic stability, and stalled U.S.–Russia negotiations, noting the expiration of the New START treaty and upcoming American delegation visit to Moscow.
This statement comes amid ongoing geopolitical tensions, questions about security guarantees, and renewed debate over the future of arms-control agreements.
