MOSCOW. June 23 (Interfax) - The arms control situation in Europe largely depends on Washington, and the Russian-U.S. summit has confirmed the relevance of resuming the strategic dialogue, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said.
"The way the situation in Europe will be developing, in particular, in the arms control field, largely depends on the United States. Results of the recent meeting of the Russian and U.S. presidents in Geneva have confirmed the relevance of resuming the strategic dialogue," Shoigu said at the Moscow Conference on International Security on Wednesday.
