MOSCOW: Talks between Russia and the United States were challenging but useful and the United Nations and other countries will be involved in additional discussions, a member of the Russian delegation told the TASS news agency.
“Everything was discussed - there was an intense, challenging dialogue, but it was very useful for us and for the Americans,” Russian Senator Grigory Karasin was quoted as saying.
“Many problems were discussed.” Karasin, a former diplomat, said that talks would continue and that the United Nations and other - unidentified countries - would be involved in them.
