Dmitry Peskov said that the Geneva summit did not create the conditions for removing the United States from the list of countries unfriendly to Russia. A Kremlin spokesman indicated that the tangible results of the summit had not yet been achieved. The list of countries not friendly to Moscow, published by the Russian Foreign Ministry on May 14, includes the United States and the Czech Republic.
Regarding the US sanctions that will be imposed on Russia for poisoning opposition politician Alexei Navalny, Peskov said that some of them are provided by law in the United States. These economic sanctions are not affected by Joe Biden’s position, the spokesperson said, the Telegraph office wrote.
