There were a lot of questions in the United States over the fact that President Donald Trump did not share the content of his conversations with President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin, including with his official representatives.
Is the Kremlin influencing the transparency of these conversations?
It is difficult for me to comment on what is happening in the United States and President Trump accused of being a Russian agent. I would say this is a lowering of the standards of journalism for the American press and a thankless job.
I cannot believe that journalists in the United States sincerely and professionally deal with these problems. There is such a thing as the culture of diplomacy, the culture of negotiations, the culture of communication at the interstate level.
This implies following the decorum, approaches and norms accepted in each of the parties in interstate relations. As far as I know, the US Constitution authorises the President to set and carry out the country's foreign policy.
We know that this right is now being attacked by Congress. They write a lot about this, including your colleagues.
But this does not make these attacks constitutional or legitimate. I will not comment on the actions taken by the US Administration in accordance with the President's and his Administration's powers.
Since you have raised this topic, I would like to make the following point. Maria Butina is charged with having certain subversive motives for her interactions with Americans.
They could charge literally any Russian citizen, a public official or someone like Butina, who wants to receive an education and interact with American and other foreign colleagues.
They get accused of espionage and promotion of certain goals that are illegitimate and contrary to the interests of the United States.
But if you look at the circle of contacts of American diplomats in Moscow, the scope of their Russian acquaintances, you will see that the Russians, who are under illegal American sanctions, are primary targets for the attention of American diplomats.
Yet, no one charges US diplomats for communicating with people they are prohibited to contact and who are barred from entering the United States as outcasts.
There is another example of the absurdity of what is happening. Prosecutor Robert Mueller has been working for almost two years now. He interviewed dozens, if not hundreds of people, but found no leaks that would confirm alleged collusion between US President Donald Trump and the Russian Federation.
No facts and no leaks were presented, which is very strange for the American political system. Leaks usually happen instantly there.
There have been some; several facts have been mentioned regarding Ukraine's involvement in the US election campaign, but not Russia.
Here is one example. Michael Flynn served as President Trump's national security adviser for several days. I read with interest what he was specifically accused of.
Prosecutor Mueller accused him of two things: first, Flynn called Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak before President Trump's inauguration and asked him not to reciprocate in response to the sanctions that Barack Obama imposed on Russia in the last days of his presidency, urged us not to take the path of escalation and confrontation.
Was that so bad? Was it against the interests of the American people or the American government that a potential member of the administration urged us not to harm the American diplomatic mission in the Russian Federation, not to take away property or expel diplomats?
This was one accusation against Flynn. The second charge against him was that he also asked Ambassador Kislyak to influence Moscow's position on the resolution discussed in the UN Security Council, which required Israel to stop building new settlements in the occupied territories.
Since the Obama administration decided not to block adoption of this resolution and, unlike in the previous cases, to abstain rather than vote it down, Flynn, according to Mueller, asked the Russian side to veto this anti-Israeli resolution.
I am not talking about the substance of the mater right now, whether it was necessary to adopt that resolution or not. But he essentially called on the Russian side to defend the position that the United States had been promoting in the UN for decades.
Here are two accusations against this person. I do not know what sentence he will get. But the absurdity of the situation is obvious to me.
This is just one example of the bacchanalia going on around the so-called Russian dossier.
