Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters on Wednesday, June 11th, that it was unlikely that attempts to improve Russia-U.S. ties would bring “quick results”, after a series of calls between presidents Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin.
“There are many obstacles in bilateral relations,” Peskov said.
Alongside the calls, Putin has met Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff in Moscow several times, while top diplomats have also held talks in Saudi Arabia.
Lower-level delegations met in Istanbul for negotiations on boosting the work of their respective embassies.
Russia’s ambassador to the United States said those talks were set to continue in Moscow and Washington, state news agency TASS reported on Wednesday.
