Kremlin says Trump presidency was bad for Russia, but communication was better

[KARAH RUCKER]

THE KREMLIN SAYS “NOTHING GOOD FOR RUSSIA HAD COME OUT OF TRUMP’S PRESIDENCY FROM 2017 TO 2021.”

THE ONLY POSITIVE THE KREMLIN SPOKE OF – WAS AN OPEN LINE OF COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTRIES DURING TRUMP’S TIME IN OFFICE.

SOMETHING THAT WAS STOPPED UNDER THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION DUE TO RUSSIA’S INVASION OF UKRAINE.

KREMLIN SPOKESPERSON DMITRY PESKOV WAS ASKED BY REPORTERS ABOUT TRUMP AND PUTIN’S WORKING RELATIONSHIP.

PESKOV SAID AS FOR THE TWO GETTING ALONG OR NOT GETTING ALONG –

UNDER TRUMP – NOTHING GOOD CAME OUT OF THE RELATIONSHIP FOR RUSSIA’S BENEFIT.

PESKOV ATTRIBUTED “MORE RESTRICTIONS” IMPOSED ON RUSSIA UNDER TRUMP AS TO WHY THE KREMLIN BELIEVES TRUMP WAS BAD FOR THEIR COUNTRY.

THE QUESTIONS COME AS TRUMP SECURES THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION FOR PRESIDENT –

POTENTIALLY SETTING HIM UP FOR ANOTHER FOUR YEARS IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

THE KREMLIN ACKNOWLEDGED RUSSIA IS A COMMON TOPIC THAT COMES UP IN AMERICAN POLITICS – ESPECIALLY AROUND ELECTIONS.

AND WITH A WAR RAGING – AND THE WEST POSITIONING ITSELF AGAINST RUSSIA –

THIS ELECTION IS SEEN AS ONE OF HIGH-STAKES.

POLAND’S PRESIDENT RECENTLY SAID IF RUSSIA WINS THE WAR IN UKRAINE –

IT WILL TRIGGER A CONFLICT WITH THE WEST.

PESKOV RESPONDED TO THIS CLAIM – SAYING THE KREMLIN DOES NOT SHARE THE SAME PREDICTION.
