Russian President Vladimir Putin today told reporters in Lima that US President-elect Donald Trump had confirmed in their first telephone conversation last week a willingness to normalize Russian-American relations, saying he told Trump he was willing as well.
Officials on both sides had confirmed that the two were talking up the idea of a major improvement of relations. Trump campaigned on the idea of better relations with Russia and cooperation between the two sides in fighting against ISIS.
NATO nations have been complaining about Trump’s intention to improve ties with Russia, insisting that the alliance’s current hostile stance needs to continue. President Obama has been talking with European nations about continuing this acrimony.
Putin did, however, thank Obama for “years of joint work,” saying that Obama was welcome to visit Russia for a meeting any time he wants. Obama last visited Russia for the G20 summit in 2013.
As usual the only adult in the room is Vladimir Putin.
This sounds good to me , I don’t think Russia did anything wrong in Yugoslavia , Georgia , Ukraine or Syria But I do believe NATO and the United States did much wrong in Yugoslavia , Iraq , Ukraine , Syria , Libya Georgia ,and Egypt . Trump is acting like a possibility of maybe changing our policies a little bit .. Both Russia and Israel seem pleased .
Making good relations with Russia is long overdue. NATO needs to STFU and understand we wish for peace not belligerence.
American higher national interest wouldn’t wanted to have good relationship with Russia because foreign policies requires weapons to sell so peaceful relationship is against the national interest.
That’s why Muslim world so divided to their Islam to Shia and Sunny that’s why Americans happy to exploit this and that’s why middle east is in mess,and what a great mess to take advantage !
If no conflict how to invaded the countries, how to sell weapons?
If no bad guys they created one.
