MOSCOW:  Moscow sees the nervous reaction of Western countries to the Russia-US contacts, they are causing real hysteria, Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said at a briefing.

"We see a nervous, if not to say panicky reaction of the West to the Russia-US contacts," she said. "Russian-American contacts at high and the highest levels are causing real hysteria among Euro-Atlantic Russophobes," the diplomat emphasized.

The spokeswoman pointed to "an unprecedented phenomenon in international relations: the imposition of one's own participation in the negotiation process." "We are talking about some British-EU friends of the criminal regime of [Vladimir] Zelensky, who are demonstrating an inability to go beyond their own primitive attitudes to produce a hybrid war with our country to the last Ukrainian," Zakharova concluded.

The Russian and US delegations began talks in Riyadh at around 7:30 a.m. GMT. Russia is represented by Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, Presidential Aide Yury Ushakov, and CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) Kirill Dmitriev. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, national security adviser Mike Waltz, and special envoy for the Middle East Stephen Witkoff are participating in the negotiations.
