According to him, compared with the NATO response, the document from the United States is almost a model of diplomatic decency.

“The answer from NATO is so ideological, it breathes so much with the exclusivity of the North Atlantic Alliance, its special mission, special purpose, that I was just a little ashamed of those who wrote these texts,” the minister said.

He stated this in an interview with four radio stations - Sputnik, Ekho Moskvy, Govorit Moskva and Komsomolskaya Pravda.

Lavrov also said that negotiations on security guarantees with the United States and NATO have not yet been completed.
