Representatives from Russia and the United States plan to meet in the coming weeks to discuss mutual irritants in bilateral relations. This was reported by Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov.

The deputy minister noted that such meetings began to take place regularly, and the Foreign Ministry believes that it is useful. “It is another thing that the pace of promotion from a substantive point of view is lower than desirable,” Ryabkov told IA Novosti. But we do not refuse to do so.”.

The official representative of the department Maria Zakharova also spoke about possible contacts to remove “irritants” in August. What these factors are, she did not specify, but added that the timing of the meetings is being worked out.
