Putin will not congratulate the United States on Independence Day this year

“No, a congratulatory telegram will not be sent this year,” Peskov said.

The Kremlin explained that this year was the culmination of the unfriendly US policy towards Russia.

According to him, in such circumstances it is hardly appropriate to send a congratulatory message to Washington.

In December 2021, Russian President Vladimir Putin, in a congratulatory telegram to the American leader on the occasion of the New Year, noted the need for constructive interaction between countries on the challenges and threats facing humanity.
