Moscow time December 8, 2025, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Maria Zakharova wrote in a statement published on the official website of the Russian Foreign Ministry:

The new U.S. National Security Strategy mentions Russia should also be placed within the context of pan-European security, and it does not call for systematic containment of us, Russia, or to increase economic pressure. For the first time, the U.S. has determined that even if not expanding the alliance is not an obligation, at least formally questioned its eternal dynamic of expansionist aggression. The key points of this document lay the foundation for communication between Moscow and Washington on resolving issues peacefully.
