The Putzcor "New" fell into a street war in Hamburg and spoke about the first personal meeting of Putin and Trump

The meeting of Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, who had been waiting for politicians and diplomats for a long time, and the results of which were speculated by political scientists and journalists, finally took place. She occurred in the Street battles of Hamburg, but brought hope to soften the military conflict in Syria. Otherwise, its meaning was limited to the fact that it took place. Putin was the last of the significant state leaders with whom the new president of the United States spoke. It is difficult to judge by fresh tracks, but we can hope that the turn from the direction of "nowhere" has occurred. The parties agreed to create lower work structures for dialogue.

"Welcome to hell!"

On Friday evening, when the heads of state and governments of the twenty countries went to the reception and concert at the Elb Philharmonic to the island in the Old Porto, I left the press center. Getting out of the impersonal exhibition quarter of Hamburg (local VDNH), where a two -day meeting of the Big Twenty leaders took place, in the search for an open metro station, I fell into the war. Police, among whom were not local, could not show the road, and the elderly pair near the next closed Feldstrasse station said that the next closest was Sternhantz.

- Far?

- No, ten minutes, but unsafe.

I understood the meaning of these words on the Noyer_PFFERDEMARKT Square. There was a front line between the police armed with special equipment and thousands of anti-globalist demonstrators. Further to the fish market in the direction of the Elbe is the territory of opponents of the authorities. The police tried to free the ways of traveling state guests from the troublemakers after an evening in the Philharmonic to their hotels. On the map - the prestige of Germany.

A flame with black smoke rose from the fire barricades, parked cars burned, from time to time a jet of water from water bodies flew from the police, from the side of the demonstrators - fireflies, bottles and other objects. And all this to the accompaniment of noise grenades. At the time of writing these lines, the damage was calculated, it is clearly larger than the evening before, when fifty policemen were easily injured, dozens of prestigious cars burned down and about fifty pogroms were detained.

Having wetted a little, I managed to cross the “front line” and, hiding a couple of times in the arches of the entrances from the crowd that ruined from another police attack, I purposefully went to the Sternichantz metro station, which, however, also turned out to be closed, and then to Schlumpa.

All the way I met companies of young people who went in the opposite direction from working stations to the Front Line. Passing by the teleporters, they showed fingers spread out in the “Victory” sign. They did not look like hooligans and pogroms, whom I saw on the “front line”, but went there and clearly sympathized with the demonstrators. The owners of the cafe and brewer invited with the inscriptions: "Demonstrators, welcome."

The walls of the houses of the Quarter Shanca, the estates of the Communists and the anarchists are sealed with leaflets against globalization and “wild” capitalism, against the “twenty” (the action was called a sarcastic greeting: “Welcome to hell!”). But the main antihero was Trump, whom some leaflets called the "fascist."

He is an absolute evil. Against his background, Putin's unloved in the West looked quite acceptable guest of Hamburg.

Gestures and the meaning of views

In the press center of the Twenty summit, it was difficult not to hear Russian speech. In the morning of Friday, numerous representatives of the Russian state media competed in the interpretation of gestures and views.

When relations between countries are very thin, you have to catch and interpret the meager signals of personal affection between leaders. Ideally, in the modern world, interstate relations should not depend on personal sympathies or hostiles. Leaders in any state of personal relations must fulfill their mandate. But in practice, they are more often similar to the monarchs of the century before last.

Angel Merkel, as the hostess of the meeting, hosted guests on the protocol. With Macron, in a friendly manner she kissed, as with Brussels officials of the stupid and cadet. Trump came as the owner, the older brother or father, held out Merkel's hand, without particularly warm feelings, he familiarly acquired her by the shoulders and went on to the hall.

With Putin, Frau Chancellor exchanged on -duty courtes, smiles and handshakes, as well as with others. Is it true,

Then they walked together to the table of the working dinner and talked about something, reinforcing the tongue with gestures. It is difficult to guess the movements of the palms: as if something would fly through something. Airplanes, shells? The interlocutors did not smile.

But the spokeswoman Peskov noted that Merkel very warmly met Putin. There can be no talk of international isolation of Russia.

Someone continued to look for a hidden meaning in the arrangement of guests on a “family photo”, where Putin stood through the Chinese Si from the presiding Merkel, and Trump is completely from the edge: then only Macron. But it was just a protocol that takes into account the former and future chairmen of “twenty” and the experience of leaders at his post.

The competition in guessing the signals continued in the minutes of the protocol shooting of the beginning of the meeting between Putin and Trump. The formulas of politeness were given a political meaning.

Reporters shouted out questions that were not provided for by the script that Trump and Putin ignored. The first with the arrogance of the American billionaire, the second with the icy impenetration of the KGB agent.

Before the meeting, tension was thickened in connection with Trump's performance on the eve of Warsaw. There, he called Russia a destabilizing factor and promised the Poles and the Baltic states that America would protect them on the basis of Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty. If someone attacks them (who else besides Russia?).

The chairman of the European Council Donald Tusk, a former Polish prime minister, said that Trump had long been waiting in Europe in Europe. But, he made a reservation, it remains to be convinced: this is a single impulse of Trump or the new policy of Washington. Brussels and Central Europe are wary, doubting that Trump is quite rigidly opposed by Putin.

Putin's bargaining - Trump

The meeting of Putin-Tramp lasted more than two hours instead of the planned 30-40 minutes. Apparently, the bargaining, on the accumulated problems, was difficult and exciting, but the head of the State Department Rex Tillerson explained this with a mercy that arose, “positive understanding” between the two presidents. They, they say, did not want to end the conversation, and even invading the hall after an hour of conversation Melanie Trump could not encourage her husband to stop.

There were no press conferences of Putin and Trump following the results of negotiations in Hamburg. Information about their meeting to journalists from the Kremlin and Belodomovsky bullets received in retelling, respectively, Sergei Lavrov and Rex Tillerson.

According to Lavrov, the presidents agreed to announce the ceasefire in the south-west of Syria since Sunday afternoon. This is a prepared surprise. Only on Friday, the experts of the Russian Federation and the United States in Amman agreed on the memorandum of the de -escalation zone in the areas of Deraa, Kuneitra and Suwrid. There, the Russian military police will ensure security in coordination with Jordanians and Americans. There is still an understanding of three de -escalation zones. According to Tillerson, it takes another week to coordinate the last details in the southern zone. There is no clarity in the north yet. The monitoring center is created in Jordan.

The parties appreciate this achievement differently. Russia emphasizes that the United States and Jordan agreed with Syria’s territorial integrity, the Americans - Russia's recognition of an armed Syrian opposition, against which it still fought on the side of Assad. The United States is still for the expulsion of the Assad clan from power to Damascus.

The United States and Russia remained in its issues in the return of Russian diplomatic development in Washington. Russian diplomats failed to agree on the return of convicted in the United States to Russia for a long time by businessman Buter and pilot Yaroshenko. They look differently at Pyongyang's militaristic and nuclear ambitions. There is no information and the possible issuance of the United States of the Divine Snowden, who received the status of a refugee in Russia. Whether Putin and Trump traded about this, sources are silent.

In Ukraine , there are also no breakthroughs, as was not expected. But the United States is now connected to solving the problem along with the Norman format. Announced the appointment of a special representative of the United States in Ukraine. They became Kurt Walker, a former Permanent Representative of NATO. He, as Tillerson emphasized, was appointed at the request of Russia. This will be a communication channel between Moscow and Washington to resolve the situation in the east of Ukraine. Lavrov expects the US special representative will soon come to Moscow for consultations.

Why is the “twenty” - big?

Actually, the “twenty” summit is not about the relationship of the great powers. He is about solving the aggravated global problems. The main topics were opposition to protectionism in global trade, terrorism, migration. The European Union introduced on the agenda a special question "On the curbing of globalization."

The “twenty” was not invented so that the leaders meet in the fields and discuss bilateral problems, including those that annoy the demonstrators in Hamburg. It exists to discuss world problems in order to share. The rich must pay for solving problems, reinforcing their voice with money. The UN is arranged according to another principle: the place among the winners in the Second World War, and not by economic weight and technological progress.

“Twenty” is two -thirds of the planet’s population, four fifth world GDP, three quarters of global trade. Russia in the Twenty is not because it is rich and makes a lot of useful things for the whole world. The status of a great power rests on the possession of nuclear weapons and the right of a veto in the UN SC (outdated heritage of that Second World War).

Today, the foreign policy of Russia is aimed at standing out, boasting complete sovereignty and absolute independence (which is not in the modern world) and be sure to look great.

The share of Russia in the world GDP is 1.7%, while the United States is 24.7%, the EU is 21.8%, China is 14.9%, Japan is 6.6%. According to GDP per capita, Russians in the “twenty” at one of the last places (8.066 euros per year), second not only to wealthy Americans, Europeans, Australians, Canadians, Japanese and Southern Koreans, but also the Turgonians with the Argentines. A little poorer - the Chinese and Mexicans, the Indians and Indonesians are completely poor, but there are a lot of them, therefore they are drawn to participate in the "most important".

But Russia is the only state that can completely destroy the United States ...
