GENEVA (Sputnik) – Russia does not exclude the possibility of engaging in IT dialogue with NATO if the alliance offers a constructive agenda, the Russian president's special representative for international cooperation in information security told Sputnik on Monday.
"Russia does not exclude constructive contacts, especially if they are substantial, and not a cover for military preparations, meaning that if the alliance wants talks as a disguise to build cyberpower, we are not ready for such talks. Dialogue needs to be about how to ease tensions in Europe and not legitimize their escalation," Andrei Krutskikh said.
