Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov referred to US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s Asian tour and her probable visit to Taiwan as a provoked move that only escalates tensions in the region. 

He announced Russia’s support for China and understanding of Beijing's “absolutely justified” attitude towards the situation, claiming that "instead of respecting this sensitivity, unfortunately, the United States chooses the path of such a confrontation," adding that it neither promises a positive outcome.

Kremlin hopes for JCPOA restoration, prisoner exchange still unresolved

The Kremlin anticipates that the Iranian nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), will be resumed as soon as possible but due to unfriendly actions of the West, spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday that there are new realities to face. 

In response, US President Joe Biden said that Washington developed proposals for the full resumption of the JCPOA, in order for Iran to not claim nuclear weapons.

"As far as we understand, work is still ongoing. There are several issues on the agenda. In addition, there are certain new realities associated with the unfriendly steps of the countries of the collective West against Russia, which are indirectly projected onto some provisions of a possible deal. More work is needed to solve these issues. But of course, we would like this deal to resume as soon as possible," Peskov disclosed to reporters.

Peskov further emphasized that talks between Russia and the US concerning the exchange of prisoners must remain discrete as opposed to resorting to what he referred to as “megaphone diplomacy”, while White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed Russia had made a counteroffer which the US does not view as a serious effort.

Kremlin: talks on new START with US must occur as soon as possible

Moscow has repeatedly talked about the importance of conducting talks with Washington on the New START (Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty), Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday. 

Earlier this week, US President Joe Biden said that his administration is ready to promptly negotiate a new arms control framework to replace the New START treaty with Russia when it expires in 2026. 

"Moscow has repeatedly talked about the need to start such negotiations as soon as possible because there is little time left. If the treaty ceases to exist without being replaced by a solid other bases, this will have the most negative impact on world security and stability," Peskov told reporters, mentioning as well Russia’s support of the resumption of talks from the beginning.

"We have advocated from the very beginning that we need to start talking as soon as possible, but so far, you know, it is the United States that has not shown any interest de facto," Peskov said, adding that the respect of the interests of both sides should be taken into consideration.

Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Turkish counterpart, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, intend to discuss Syria, Ukraine, and the implementation of the grain deal during a meeting in Sochi, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday, amid Erdogan’s planned working visit to Russia on Friday.

"Negotiations with the Turkish president will be devoted to issues of bilateral cooperation. This is the economy, the discussion of regional problems, this is Syria, this is Ukraine, and a good opportunity to coordinate stances on the effectiveness of this mechanism for the export of grain from Ukrainian ports, how effectively it works ... to exchange views on world affairs. The agenda, as we see, is very, very tense," Peskov informed reporters.
