We, together with our European allies and partners, are ready to discuss them, "RIA Novosti Price quotes.
As emphasized, "the Russians are well aware that some things in these proposals will be unacceptable to the United States and our European European allies and partners."
Price also added that the security talks "will include a discussion of the concerns of both sides, but the US is counting on the potential of open channels of dialogue and diplomacy."
