Kremlin says new US security strategy accords largely with Russia's view

The Kremlin praised the U.S. strategy for dropping language labeling Russia a direct threat and called for cooperation on strategic stability amid stalled Ukraine peace talks.

  • On Dec 7, the Kremlin welcomed the United States' new national security strategy, saying it largely accorded with Russia's perceptions; in a statement issued on December 7, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, `The adjustments that we see correspond in many ways to our vision.`
  • The new U.S. strategy portrays Europe as over-regulated and warns of 'civilizational erasure,' while framing ending the war in Ukraine and restoring strategic stability with Russia as core interests.
  • Peskov told state TV that `The adjustments we're seeing, I would say, are largely consistent with our vision` and added, `President Trump is currently strong in terms of domestic political positions. And this gives him the opportunity to adjust the concept to suit his vision`.
  • The release coincided with stalled U.S.-drafted peace talks in Florida and fresh Russian forces attacks that killed at least four people, while European allies voiced concern over softer U.S. language toward Russia.
  • The public praise is unusual because such alignment between Moscow and Washington is rare; Democrats in Congress and the ECFR warned of diplomatic fallout, with Carl Bildt calling it `Its language that one otherwise only finds coming out of some bizarre minds of the Kremlin`.
