Russian diplomat says Moscow could conclude non-aggression pacts with NATO member states

Senior Russian diplomat Alexey Drobinin outlined three security options, including bilateral mutual non-aggression pacts with individual NATO member states.

  • On Wednesday, senior Foreign Ministry diplomat Alexey Drobinin suggested Moscow could conclude non-aggression pacts with NATO member states as part of a new security architecture for Europe discussed during the Ukraine peace process.
  • Russia's chief negotiator Vladimir Medinsky confirmed that a new security framework for Europe dominated two days of recent negotiations in Abu Dhabi, which resumed this week for the first time since February.
  • Drobinin outlined three options for security agreements, ranging from collective defensive alliances similar to pacts with Belarus and North Korea to bilateral non-aggression treaties and political agreements prohibiting mutual assistance to adversaries like Moscow's pact with Iran.
  • Individual NATO member states could receive "additional individual security guarantees from the Russian Federation," Drobinin stated as part of the proposed security architecture.
  • Some European politicians oppose discussing Europe's security architecture, arguing that progress on Ukraine including a ceasefire must be agreed first, creating diplomatic divisions over negotiation sequencing.
