Moscow Times: Russia Has Ceased ‘All’ Cooperation With NATO, Foreign Ministry Official Says

The UPI headline on Grushko's critique of NATO-Russia relations is pure propaganda. Nowhere, neither in the body of the UPI report nor in Tass coverage of Grushko's interview with RIA Novosti does he say that Russia has cutoff relations with NATO. In fact, it's NATO that has stopped talking to Russia, going back to 2014.
