RFE: Russians Signal 'Little Progress' In Talks With Top U.S. Official
Russian officials have signaled little progress in high-level talks with a senior visiting U.S. State Department official, saying a dispute over embassy staffing and other matters remains unresolved.
Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov was quoted by Russian news agencies as saying that his talks with Victoria Nuland, a No. 3 official at the State Department, were useful, but he warned of possible worsening.

WNU Editor: Cannot say that I am surprised to see these talks collapse. The Kremlin views Victoria Nuland as the architect that fractured and plunged Ukraine into war in 2014.
From the Kremlin's perspective Victoria Nuland was the main person in the Obama administration responsible for undermining Ukraine President Viktor Yanukovych's government that led to the Euromaiden protests, the overthrow of Yanukovych's government, the imposition of draconian anti-Russian language and cultural restrictions, measures that quickly led to the revolt in Russian-dominated eastern Ukraine, the annexation of Crimea by Russia, and a war that shows no signs of ending.
What does not help is that Victoria Nuland herself bragged about her involvement to undermine Ukraine's government in 2014 (see video here).
Bottom line.
The Kremlin sees the arrival of Nuland today as a signal that Washington has no interest in alleviating tensions, and the collapse of today's talks only confirms that belief.
As for Victoria Nuland's real reason to be in Moscow .... getting Moscow's support to the establishment of US bases on the border of Afghanistan and flights over Russia to support these bases .... that deal is all but dead ....
