Local Editor

After more than three hours talks with US President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin said that “there are no objective reasons for Moscow and Washington not to get along.”

“We’ve reviewed the current status and prospects of the Russia-US ties, key issues of the international agenda. It’s obvious that the bilateral relations are undergoing a difficult stage, but these difficulties, tensions between our countries have no objective reasons. The era of ideological confrontation between our countries is long gone, the situation in the world has changed drastically,” Putin said.

The Russian President further highlighted that “the talks reflected “shared wish” of the two presidents to fix the US-Russia relations and envision the first steps to do so.”

“The US and Russia are facing new challenges nowadays, differing drastically from the ones of the Cold War era,” Putin said, “naming regional conflicts, spread of terrorism, organized crime, ecology and economy risks.”

Trump again asked his Russian counterpart on the alleged Russian meddling into the 2016 presidential elections, Putin revealed, stating that he replied exactly the same, as the last time. Russia has not meddled into the internal affairs of the US, he stated, adding that if any real evidence is provided, Moscow will cooperate on it.
