Russia continues to play a central role in security matters. And there can be no European security without the contribution of Russia. About this, speaking at the scientific-practical conference on the subject “OSCE: Perspectives on European and Eurasian Security and Cooperation”, Marcel Pesko, Director of OSCE Conflict Prevention Centre, said this.
Russia, he said, is “a pioneer in reaching agreements on arms control”. The current arms control in Europe, as the expert noted, doesn’t reflect contemporary realities.
“Today there is no real political will in the European space regarding disarmament and arms control. Member states don’t want to start negotiations on how to improve current mechanisms and adapt them to modern needs”, he noted, in particular.
