Today was a good day for resuming the dialogue and discussion that forms part of the NATO-Russia relationship, ... We've moved from permafrost into slightly softer ground.
I see this as turning a page on past disagreements and turning to new chapters of dialogue and cooperation on matters of mutual interest,
The ball is now firmly in the court of the Macedonian government to deliver on the political dialogue and the cease fire in order to allow NATO's help to come into effect,
create a new and substantial basis for progress in the dialogue and cooperation between Moscow and NATO.
