Moscow not fazed by Trump’s harsh rhetoric – Kremlin — ApsnyNews World News

Russia takes the harsh recent rhetoric by US President Donald Trump calmly and intends to continue dialogue with Washington, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said.

Trump told journalists on Tuesday that he was “unhappy” with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, accusing him of not wanting to settle the Ukraine conflict. “We get a lot of bullsh*t thrown at us by Putin,” the US president claimed. Referring to their phone calls, the latest of which took place last week, Trump said Putin “is very nice all the time, but it turns out to be meaningless” in terms of ending the fighting. Moscow maintains that it is ready for a diplomatic solution with Kiev, but insists that it should be legally binding and address the root causes of the crisis.

When asked about Trump’s latest comments on Wednesday, Peskov replied that “we treat them quite calmly.”

The US president’s “style, generally, is quite harsh in terms of the phrases that he uses,” he added.

“We are calm about this. We are committed to continuing our dialogue with Washington and our policy of repairing the significantly damaged bilateral relations,” the spokesman noted.
