“Of course, we welcome the intention of US President Donald Trump to establish constructive and mutually beneficial relations. Russia is disposed to do so with respect for each other, ”the deputy believes.

Shvytkin also noted that it would be very difficult for the United States to go on a dialogue.

“If we talk about Russia, then we have consolidation, unity and understanding in matters of the need to build relations with the United States. But, if we talk about the United States, then we must recognize that the internal political situation in their country and the contradictions of the elites make it difficult to build a dialogue on the necessary basis, ”he concluded.

Earlier, Trump called a good telephone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin and noted that the two states have great potential for good relations.
