“We have not yet received any specific proposals on this matter.

But we repeat once again - dialogue is necessary in this area, ”Peskov answered the question of whether Moscow was ready to submit its proposals to Washington on START III.

Earlier, US presidential envoy for nuclear non-proliferation Adam Sheinman announced Washington's readiness for a dialogue with Moscow on arms control.

Prior to this, US President Joe Biden said that his administration was ready to discuss with Russia a new arms control system that would replace the START III treaty, which expires in 2026.
