This was said today by Anatoly Antonov, the Russian ambassador to the United States, emphasizing that negotiations with Russia cannot be resolved through an ultimatum.
"It is sad that the United States is trying to twist all the facts as it suits them and they want it to turn out that Russia is undermining everything," Antonov said, reports TASS.
The ambassador especially pointed out that the dialogue with Russia in the form of ultimatums was "absolutely unacceptable".
"You cannot issue ultimatums to Russia. We will reach an agreement, but only in a normal dialogue," Antonov pointed out.
Russian President Vladimir Putin officially proposed on Friday that the START agreement be extended unconditionally for another year, because the current agreement will expire on February 4, 2021.
Russian news agency TASS concludes that Robert O'Brien, United States National Security Advisor, condemned this proposal to failure in advance.
As much as this is a poor decision by the U.S, it is not an ultimatum, but simply a choice not to renew a very important agreement called START. Russia is futilely pounding its chest, only risking injury to itself.

Sorry but it is an ultimatum. Literally when the US says you do it their way or they walk away from the deal and no negotiations, that exactly what it is. Lets see who will injure themselves, the US with a collective government debt of 154% to GDP or Russia with 15% to GDP.
Expect much more poverty in the US while spending on defending freedom and democracy sky rockets and producing more s*** like the F35.

Putin is made to look foolish by Trump, after Putin helped elect Trump. Furthermore, Trump is poking Putin in the eye with a sharp stick. This only illustrates that Putin is being outsmarted by an idiot.
