http://www.itar-tass.com/en/c154/298847.html WASHINGTON, December 16 (Itar-Tass) —— Russia will decide whether it will participate in the NATO summit next year after the presidential election in March and much will depend on progress in the missile defense issue, Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov told reporters on Thursday. “It is clear that without progress in the missile defense issue other aspects of Russia-NATO relations, no matter how important they may be, cannot provide substantial contents for the summit,” he said. Ryabkov added that so far “the issue (of participation) has not been discussed and will be discussed after the substance of the summit becomes clear.” “So far I do not see such substance,” he said evidently referring to a deadlock in missile defense controversy. “From the point of view of the schedule it is clear that a real discussion of the issue will begin after we hold the presidential election. However it is not the question of time for the decision making, but the question of substance. If we agree on a missile defense scheme that suits us the chances for the holding of the summit will increase. If we do not agree it will not matter in which month – January, March, or April – the absence of an agreement will be admitted,” Ryabkov said. 03:03 16/12/2011ALL NEWS
http://www.itar-tass.com/en/c154/298861.html WASHINGTON, December 16 (Itar-Tass) —— Russia calmly reacted to the U.S. decision to stop exchanging information with Moscow over the compliance with the Conventional Forces Europe (CFE) Treaty as it obtains the necessary information through other channels, according to Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov. The U.S. decision “has absolutely no meaning for us,” he told reporters on Thursday after a session of the bilateral working group co-chaired by U.S. Under Secretary of State Ellen Tauscher. “We receive the necessary data to analyze the military-political situation through other channels, including global exchange of military information and in the framework of the Vienna document on enhanced measures of trust,” he said. Ryabkov recalled the 1999 Vienna document was updated at the recent OSCE summit in Vilnius. “It is fully sufficient for us,” he said. “Therefore, it does not affect our interests whether NATO countries provide CFE information to us or not. It is the sovereign decision of NATO members and we accept it as it is, as a factor of life. We shall continue to stick to our own moratorium (on CFE compliance),” Ryabkov said. He and Tauscher discussed strategic stability issues, conventional forces, space issues, the prohibition of biological and toxic weapons, and the review conference currently under way in Geneva. “I cannot say there were any breakthroughs and we did not have such aims before us,” Ryabkov said, but added he was satisfied with the results of the talks.

http://www.itar-tass.com/en/c32/298916.html MOSCOW, December 16 (Itar-Tass) —— Syria’s Vice-President Farouk al-Sharaa will meet Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Friday to discuss ways for a peaceful settlement of the conflict in his country. Lavrov has numerously stated Russian opposition to any sanctions against Syria as they rarely yield result. Moscow also made it clear it was against any foreign military interference in Syria and urged Damascus to accept international monitors as soon as possible. “We display decisiveness in everyday contacts with the government and other representatives of the Syrian regime and in our periodic but regular contacts with the Syrian opposition,” Lavrov said. Four delegations of Syrian opposition have visited Russia of late and the fifth is coming. It will be headed by one of the opposition leaders, Hasan Abdel Azim. 11:38 16/12/2011ALL NEWS
http://www.itar-tass.com/en/c154/299094.html MOSCOW, December 16 (Itar-Tass) —— The UN Security Council made public an upgraded version of a Russian-Chinese resolution on Syria, spokesman of the Russian Foreign Ministry Alexander Lukashevich said on Friday. This step was taken at Russia’s initiative on December 15. One of the top priorities on the resolution is the dispatch of observers from the Arab League in Syria, Alexander Lukashevich told a press briefing on Friday. “We assumed that any external interference in Syria can destabilize the situation in the Middle East and there are no alternatives to a political and diplomatic settlement,” the Russian diplomat underlined.
