CFE suspended until ratified by partners - Sergei Ivanov

BRYANSK. May 3 (Interfax) - Russia will stick to its moratorium on the Treaty on Conventional Forces in Europe (CFE) until it is ratified by other signatories, Russian First Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Ivanov told reporters in Bryansk on Thursday.

"We have introduced a moratorium and will no longer inform anyone about troop movements on our own territory. We will stick to our moratorium until our partners ratify this treaty," he said.
