Asafov noted that Russia, one way or another, is cooperating with everyone who is ready for this, including the G8 participants.

“That is, there is no damage to our country. But for the eight there is, because it is now inferior and cannot claim the fullness of major world actors. Inviting Russia back is a logical step. In this case, Trump reacts to a constructive meeting between Russian leader Vladimir Putin and French President Emmanuel Macron. Not Russia, excluded from international large platforms, organizations and alliances, risks being left alone. Only the United States has these risks because of its policies and the ultimate dictation of its requirements, ”he said.

Earlier, trump said he would support Russia's return to the G8.
