استبعد نائب وزير الخارجية الروسي سيرجي ريابكوف، إمكانية حدوث «انفراجة» في العلاقات بين بلاده والولايات المتحدة، في أعقاب القمة المرتقبة بين الرئيسين دونالد ترمب وفلاديمير بوتين في ألاسكا الجمعة.
وحذّر من أن خطر المواجهة النووية العالمية لم يتضاءل، لافتاً إلى انسحاب موسكو من معاهدة «نيو ستارت»، للحد من نشر الأسلحة النووية.
وقال ريابكوف في مقابلة مع قناة «روسيا -1»، اليوم (الأحد): في ظل الواقع الراهن «من غير المناسب استخدام مصطلح الانفراج في العلاقات بين روسيا والولايات المتحدة»، وفق ما نقلت عنه وكالة «تاس» الروسية. وأضاف أن «بوادر المنطق السليم»، بدأت تظهر في الحوار بين البلدين، وهو ما كان مفقوداً خلال السنوات الماضية. واعتبر أن المطلوب الآن ليس الانفراج، بل الإرادة السياسية لبدء خفض حرارة هذه العلاقات بشكل تدريجي.
ولفت ريابكوف إلى ما قال إنه نشر أنظمة أسلحة أمريكية في «مناطق يؤثر فيها ذلك بشكل مباشر على أمن روسيا، معتبراً أن خطر المواجهة النووية العالمية لا يتضاءل. وقال إن هناك دلائل على أن بعض العواصم ما زالت تعتبر الخيار النووي وارداً كأحد أساليب الرد على ظروف معينة تتغير بشكل حاد وبما لا يخدم مصالح تلك العواصم، وهذا مؤشر مقلق.
وبشأن تخلي موسكو عن القيود على نشر الصواريخ قصيرة ومتوسطة المدى، قال ريابكوف إن كل ما تفعله موسكو في مجال نشر الأسلحة هو رد فعل على خطوات الأمريكيين وحلفائهم.
وأشار إلى أن روسيا لم تضيع وقتها، وتملك أسلحة متطورة، وإضافة إلى أنظمة أوريشنيك (الأسرع من الصوت) تمتلك روسيا أسلحة متطورة أخرى.
وحذر من أنه مع اقتراب انتهاء معاهدة خفض الأسلحة الاستراتيجية «نيوستارت»، فإن هذا «يقربنا بشكل واضح من احتمال غياب كامل لأي آليات للحد من الأسلحة النووية».
وتمتلك الولايات المتحدة وروسيا ما يقرب من 90% من الرؤوس النووية في العالم. وتم توقيع معاهدة «نيو ستارت» عام 2010، ومن المقرر أن تنتهي عام 2026، وهي تحدد عدد الرؤوس الحربية النووية الاستراتيجية التي يمكن للبلدين نشرها.
ومن المقرر عقد لقاء القمة بين ترمب وبوتين في ولاية ألاسكا الجمعة، لمناقشة سبل إنهاء الحرب في أوكرانيا، بعدما أعلن ترمب عن «تقدم كبير» في المحادثات التي جرت بين مبعوثه ستيف ويتكوف والرئيس الروسي في الكرملين الأربعاء الماضي.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov ruled out the possibility of a "breakthrough" in relations between his country and the United States, following the upcoming summit between Presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska on Friday.
He warned that the risk of global nuclear confrontation has not diminished, pointing to Moscow's withdrawal from the "New START" treaty, which limits the deployment of nuclear weapons.
In an interview with "Russia-1" channel today (Sunday), Ryabkov stated that under the current reality, "it is inappropriate to use the term détente in relations between Russia and the United States," according to the Russian news agency TASS. He added that "signs of common sense" have begun to appear in the dialogue between the two countries, which has been lacking in recent years. He considered that what is needed now is not détente, but the political will to gradually cool down these relations.
Ryabkov pointed to what he described as the deployment of American weapon systems in "areas that directly affect Russia's security," asserting that the risk of global nuclear confrontation does not diminish. He stated that there are indications that some capitals still consider the nuclear option as a viable response to certain conditions that are changing sharply and do not serve the interests of those capitals, which is a concerning indicator.
Regarding Moscow's abandonment of restrictions on the deployment of short- and medium-range missiles, Ryabkov said that everything Moscow is doing in the field of arms deployment is a reaction to the actions of the Americans and their allies.
He noted that Russia has not wasted its time and possesses advanced weapons, and in addition to the Avangard systems (hypersonic), Russia has other advanced weapons.
He warned that as the expiration of the "New START" treaty approaches, this "clearly brings us closer to the possibility of the complete absence of any mechanisms for nuclear arms control."
The United States and Russia possess nearly 90% of the world's nuclear warheads. The "New START" treaty was signed in 2010 and is set to expire in 2026; it limits the number of strategic nuclear warheads that the two countries can deploy.
The summit meeting between Trump and Putin is scheduled to take place in Alaska on Friday to discuss ways to end the war in Ukraine, after Trump announced "significant progress" in the talks that took place between his envoy Steve Witkoff and the Russian president in the Kremlin last Wednesday.
