The United States and Russia will hold talks to discuss the resumption of verification work between the two countries, and the United States: sanctions against Russia will not affect Russia's verification in the United States
US State Department spokesman Price said on the 8th that the United States and Russia plan to hold talks to discuss the resumption of the mutual verification mechanism stipulated in the "New START Treaty" signed by the two countries in 2010. Price said that the implementation mechanism of the treaty will meet soon to discuss the facility verification mechanism that was suspended by the Russian side in August this year on the grounds that "the United States imposed travel restrictions on Russia and deprived Russia of its verification rights with the United States." Price stressed that he has made it clear to Moscow that the sanctions and restrictions imposed by the United States against Russia under the Russian-Ukrainian war do not affect Russia's verification in the United States in accordance with the treaty. Price did not say when and where the talks would take place. However, sources said that the talks are expected to be held in the Middle East. The New START Treaty, the only arms control treaty between the United States and Russia, was scheduled to meet twice a year, but due to the freeze in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the most recent meeting was in October 2021.

Indian Foreign Minister Visits Russia: We will continue to deepen India-Russia energy cooperation, which is beneficial to India
Indian Foreign Minister Jaishankar visited Moscow on November 8, met with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, and exchanged views on Russia's special military operation in Ukraine and India-Russia energy cooperation. This is the fifth meeting between Jaishankar and Lavrov this year. At the press conference after the meeting, speaking of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Jaishankar commented that this is not a suitable era for war, because the global economy is too closely interdependent, and no matter where major conflicts occur, they will affect the whole body. Jaishankar also said that India will continue to buy Russian energy because it seems to be beneficial to India for now. Former Indian Foreign Secretary Sibar recently expressed similar views on India's energy imports in a video interview with Russia Today TV. Regarding the price limit proposed by the West for Russian oil, Sibal pointed out that this is meaningless, because the oil market is highly integrated and there can be no double pricing.
Pentagon: Defense Secretary Austin did not discuss leaving with the White House
The US Pentagon said on the 8th that Defense Secretary Austin did not hold talks with any personnel in the White House on the possible departure after the midterm elections. Pentagon press secretary Ryder said Defense Secretary Austin is now focused on how to lead the Defense Department to ensure U.S. national security. In 2021, 87 retired U.S. generals signed an open letter calling for Austin's resignation, accusing him of negligence in the U.S. troop withdrawal from Afghanistan and failing to do everything to persuade President Joe Biden not to rush to withdraw troops from Afghanistan. Austin was the first African-American secretary of defense of the United States, and in the past served as commander of U.S. Central Command and deputy chief of staff of the Army.
