“The Russian side does not see US interest in the meeting of heads of state. From this, the agenda hangs. As soon as this interest is shown, Russia may support it. So far, the meeting of the two leaders has been postponed on far-fetched reasons. This is regrettable, but no more. Vladimir Putin has a busy schedule without it, ”said the expert.
Mukhin also noted that "there is no point in meeting with the American president Vladimir Putin."
“Moreover, Trump, meeting with Putin, makes certain promises and pronounces some things, and then easily refuses his words. So there is no sense in meeting with the American president Vladimir Putin, ”the expert concluded.
Earlier, Bolton said that Trump’s meeting with Putin was impossible, as Russia detained Ukrainian ships and their crews after the incident in the Kerch Strait and did not let them go.
