Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Thursday said that the U.S. had shown it was not willing to address Moscow's main security concerns amid their standoff with Ukraine, after it had received written responses Wednesday to proposals made in December.

Lavrov added the responses from the U.S. gave hope of starting a serious dialogue, but only on secondary questions and not fundamental issues.
"The main question is our clear message that we consider further NATO expansion to the East and weapons deployment, which can threaten the Russian Federation, unacceptable," he said.

Russia has also demanded NATO halt any further enlargement in the region, bar Ukraine from ever joining the organization, and pull back forces and weaponry from eastern European countries that joined after the Cold War ended.
