Russia Expects Active Dialogue with New US Leader
The Russian leadership expects an active dialogue with the new US administration, Deputy Kremlin Staff Head Sergei Prikhodko said Wednesday.
Russia hopes "there will be no pauses" in the Moscow-Washington dialogue. It believes the new U.S. administration will preserve interaction with Russia and "mount the positive potential established by the leaders of the United States and this country in the past few years," Prikhodko said.
Moscow intends to keep up "equal and mutually profitable dialogue with the United States in all directions, concerning both bilateral and international affairs," he stressed, cited by the Itar-Tass news agency.
"We proceed from understating that there are many spheres in which international stability depends on relations between Russia and the United States," and "intend to continue the negotiating process on the issues that are important for both Russia and the United States," he said.
Russia is hoping that the presidential elections will bring progress in trade and economic cooperation and help remove" negative heritage" in the bilateral relations, which is still apparent in several amendments to the US constitution and a few bills to be discussed by US Congress, Prikhodko noted.
The spokesman also expressed the hope that the elections should give a new impetus to bilateral co-operation in the sphere of high technologies.
