NATO to Resume Contacts with Russia, Calls for Fresh Start Following Six-Month Freeze

NATO ministers have agreed to resume talks with Russia and have expressed hope that they could establish a “fresh start” in their relationship.

 

That relationship was severely strained last year when Russia invaded Georgia following a skirmish in South Ossetia. For six months NATO refused to carry on talks with high-level Russian contacts in response to what they considered an unjustified act of war.

 

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the two sides had mutual areas of interest including Afghanistan stating, “We can and must find ways to work constructively with Russia where we share areas of common interest, including helping the people of Afghanistan.”

 

According to a statement released by the Russian foreign ministry the “decision is a step in the right direction.”
