No reset in RF-US relations may last forever – Russian diplomat

“There is no new phase in the bilateral relations,” Rybkov told the Ekho Moskvy radio station

MOSCOW, January 26 (Itar-Tass) —— No “reset” in the Russian-U.S. relations may last for years, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said on Thursday.

“There is no new phase in the bilateral relations,” Rybkov told the Ekho Moskvy radio station. “We are continuing the process [of dialogue] rather steadily.”

“Reset” is not our word, it is not our style,” he noted. “We prefer to speak about a positive tendency in the relations in the recent time.”

He called not to “pin any labels.” “No “reset” may last forever,” he noted. “Otherwise, it means problems with the hardware or a microchip.”
