BRUSSELS, Jan 28 (Reuters) - U.S. Ambassador to Moscow John Sullivan said on Friday that Washington was now waiting for Russia's response to its written documents sketching a diplomatic path out of the Ukraine crisis, but urged Russia to withdraw troops from Ukraine's borders.
He said he hoped phone conversations or a physical meeting between American and Russian diplomats could then follow, saying diplomacy was the only way forward.
"If I put a gun on the table and come in peace, that's threatening," Sullivan told an online briefing. (Reporting by Robin Emmott; Editing by Toby Chopra)
