However, according to the American President, the United States does not want the US to “be used in someone’s interests”.
The US President Donald Trump is confident that it is beneficial for Washington to maintain good relations with Moscow and Beijing, but other countries should not be allowed to use the United States in their interests. He said this on Sunday, speaking to representatives of the US agricultural sector in Texas.
“To have good relations with China is good, and it is good to have them with Russia, as well as with many other countries. But we do not want to be used in someone’s interests”, – the American President said.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, following his working visit to Washington in December 2019, said that Trump is aware of the benefits of good relations with Russia, but there are forces in the United States that do not share this view and interfere with the establishment of contacts between the two states.
