"We have exchanged views on the prospects for improving our relations, including in the light of the upcoming US elections in November. There should be no special illusions, given the two-party anti-Russian consensus that has developed in the United States. We should prepare for a long-lasting confrontation with this country. We are ready for this in every sense," Mr. Ryabkov said.

The Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia added, “We are sending all warning signals to our opponent so that it does not underestimate our determination.”
