Reuters: Kremlin, before meeting with Trump adviser, bemoans U.S. apathy
MOSCOW (Reuters) - The Kremlin said on Thursday it noted a lack of desire in Washington to find areas where relations could be improved.
It was speaking ahead of a meeting later on Thursday in Geneva between U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton and his Russian counterpart Nikolai Patrushev, the first high-level meeting of its kind since the Russian and U.S. presidents held talks in Helsinki in July.
“It will be a chance again to discuss all the questions on our agenda that are well-known and to try and find the issues where there will be at least some readiness on the part of our colleagues to hold dialogue,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said of the meeting.

WNU Editor: The Washington establishment, main stream media, etc., are currently dead-set against any talks with Russia.

This from the Kremlin that launched biological attacks in Britain? They are reaping what they have sown. Of course they aren't so dense, more likely this is their own maskirovka.
ReplyDeleteOh Fred such language! You had always been my hero continuously chastising people here for using such language, but on review you seem to be a frequent user of it, another let down.
ReplyDeletedearest anon--
ReplyDeleteI am a bit older than you so I will share some of life has taught me: from time to time one is let down by this or that one and so, as Pope Leo XI said (I translate from the Latin): seek not a selfie in others but look homeward, angel
I only go on your own words. The internet never forgets.
DeleteThe only thing you can share is the art of incompetent lying and pathetic translation. The Anon dogging you has more credibility asking questions than you do commenting.
DeleteFor years, Russian oligarchs and robber barons seeking to park their "unsourced" capital offshore and away from the sticky fingers of the Kremlin, treated Swiss bank accounts (preferably anonymous) with their "no questions asked" customer policies as, well, Swiss bank accounts.
ReplyDeleteNo more.
One of Switzerland’s largest banks, Credit Suisse, has frozen roughly 5 billion Swiss francs ($5 billion) of money linked to Russia to avoid violating U.S. sanctions, according to its accounts, further increasing pressure on Moscow which today saw the ruble tumble to the lowest level in over two years.
