WASHINGTON, Jan 26 (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the United States on Wednesday delivered its written responses to Russia on its demands for security guarantees as part of negotiations to avert a military escalation against Ukraine.
Blinken told reporters the response sets out a serious diplomatic path forward, should Russia choose it, and has a principled and pragmatic evaluation of the concerns Russia has raised. He added that the United States is open to dialogue.
