Russia says int'l cooperation necessary in fighting terrorism
International cooperation is necessary in the fight against terrorism, but the dialogue is currently paused due to escalated global tensions, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Monday.
"The fight against terrorism is a constant process that requires full-scale international cooperation, but now, due to the period of very tense confrontation, this cooperation is not being carried out in full, it is not carried out at all," the spokesperson said.
Peskov added that Russia's special services are working independently on the terrorist attack at the concert venue and the country currently has "no contacts with the West" regarding the investigation into the attack.
Russian President Vladimir Putin will chair a meeting on Monday evening to discuss measures taken in the wake of the terrorist attack, the spokesperson said.
A terrorist attack occurred on Friday evening after gunmen stormed the Crocus City Hall concert venue in suburban Moscow, claiming at least 137 lives, according to Russian authorities.
