Wipe the tantrum

The anti -Russian "hysteria" of the American authorities and the press harms relations between the two countries. This was stated by the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov in an interview with CNN.

“The only thing I can tell you that all this public hysteria, hysteria in the official Washington and hysteria in the American media, all this is quite harmful to the future of our bilateral relations,” Peskov said. He expressed disappointment with "emotional extremism" in relation to Russia and attempts to present the Russian ambassador toxic. "

Peskov called the United States to the "global player number one" and assured that Russia is striving for a stable relationship. “We are interested in the presence of a predictable partner,” said the press secretary of the Russian president. “And now we are very sorry that, unfortunately, we have no comfortable conditions for our dialogue.”

At the same time, Peskov assured that Russia in no way intervenes in the internal affairs of the United States. This is unimaginable, and someone must say that all this is not true. We must be sober, ”the press secretary said.

On March 4, Associated Press, citing representatives of the administration and diplomats, reported that US President Donald Trump was discussing the suspension of work on an agreement with Russia to combat terrorism, including the Islamic State group.

The reason for the interlocutors of the agency called "growing political risks in establishing a closer relationship with Russia." Trump opponents in Congress require investigation of contacts by the closest employees of the US President with representatives of the Russian authorities.

"Trump's skepticism about the conclusion of such a deal with Moscow is also associated with the growth of the influence of its advisers who took a tough position in relation to Russia, including the chief of the Pentagon James Mattis and the new national security adviser to Herbert McMaster," AP notes.

In addition, the continuing militarization of Russia contributes to a decrease in Trump's optimism in the issue of improving Russian-American relations. On February 24, the president said that he was dissatisfied with the deployment of Moscow cruise missiles , which contradicts the agreement on the liquidation of medium and lower -range missiles.
