Highlights of Putin statement after summit with Trump
In Russia-US vineyards
As it is known, Russian-American peaks have not been held for more than four years. This for a long time. The recent period was very difficult for bilateral relations. And let’s be honest, they have shifted to the lowest point since the Cold War. And this is not good for our countries or the world as a whole. Obviously, sooner or later, it was necessary to correct the situation, to pass through the dialogue from confrontation. And in this context, a personal meeting of the heads of the two states was really delayed … in Ukraine
As you know and understand, one of the central problems has become the situation around Ukraine. We see the desire of the US administration and President Trump to facilitate the solution of the Ukrainian conflict, to research the essence and to understand its origins.
I said that the events in Ukraine for Russia are related to basic threats for our national security. Moreover, we have always thought and thought about the people of Ukraine, no matter how strange it was in today’s conditions. We have the same roots and everything that happens for us is a tragedy and a great pain. Therefore, our country is interested in ending it. However, we believe that all the main causes of the crisis should be eliminated in order to be sustainable and long -term in the Ukrainian settlement …
All the legitimate concerns of Russia should be taken into consideration and a fair balance should be restored as a whole in the field of security in Europe and the world. I agree with President Trump – today he spoke about it – Ukraine’s security must be ensured undoubtedly. We are ready to work on it. I hope that the understanding we have reached will allow us to approach this goal and open the path of peace in Ukraine. We hope that Kyiv and European capitals will perceive all this in a constructive way and will not create any obstacles. They will not try to disrupt the progress that occurs through provocation or behind the curtain. In economic ties
It is clear that the Russian-American business and investment partnership has a tremendous potential. Russia and the United States, trade, energy, digital field, high technology and space research has something to present to each other. Cooperation in the North Pole seems to be relevant to the restart of inter -regional contacts, including the Far East and American west coast …
I hope that today’s agreements will be not only to solve the Ukrainian problem, but also a reference point.
Start the restoration of pragmatic relations between Russia and the United States.
On cooperation with Trump
In general, we have established a very good business -like and reliable contact with President Trump. And by moving along this road, how quickly we can reach the conflict in Ukraine.
