Even the people in foreign countries have figured that out. What a shame a lot of people in Trump's own country has not yet!
A couple of days ado during International Valday discussions:
Andrei Sushentsov: Andrei Sushentsov, MGIMO University, Valdai Club.
Mr President, a years ago you said you were ready to work with any US president and that you did not know what kind of president Mr Trump would be if he won. The impression is that Trump is breaking all records in unpredictability. And it seems that cooperation with Hillary Clinton perhaps would have been more comprehensible. What is your take on this situation?
Vladimir Putin: We do not know how things could have turned out in reality either, do we?
With regard to the incumbent president, as I said a year ago – and I can repeat this now – we will do our job. And I am saying now: we are working with the president that the American people have elected. As for unpredictability, he is not the only one to blame. It also has to do with the intense opposition in the country.
After all, he is being prevented from carrying out any of his election platforms and plans. In health care, in other spheres. The moment he makes a decision on migrants, a court immediately blocks it. This is happening all the time. So to say that he is the only source of this unpredictability – no, this depends on the entire US political system. Nevertheless, we will work with the partners that we have.
The United States is a great power, the world’s largest economic and military power. We will continue working despite all difficulties. That is, of course, if they also want this. If they do not, we will not.
Meeting of the Valdai International Discussion Club
^ this is Kremlin site with Putin's answers to all kinds of questions about everything which is going on now in the world (Syria, NK, Ukraine, relationship with US, and so on and on). If anybody wants to know what Putin thinks about that, take a chance to find it out. I'm posting that just because Western Media either doesn't inform its audience about that or informs with bias.
