Putin’s Special Envoy Kirill Dmitriev in US for 'Long-Planned Meeting' at America’s invitation

Russian President Vladimir Putin’s special envoy for investment and economic cooperation, Kirill Dmitriev, has arrived in the United States at America’s invitation for a long-planned official meeting. The visit comes just days after President Trump imposed tough new sanctions on Russia’s two major oil companies, Rosneft and Lukoil, and amid heightened tensions over the ongoing war in Ukraine.

00:00I am currently in the United States at the invitation of the American side.

00:05This trip was long planned and has not been cancelled by the American side, despite a

00:10number of unfriendly actions the American side has recently taken.

00:15As President Putin said yesterday, pressure does not work with Russia, and it is crucial

00:21that Russia's national and security interests are always strictly taken into account.

00:27Therefore, the potential for economic cooperation with Russia remains, but only if Russia's

00:33interests are respected.

00:35We also see a very large number of attempts by our European colleagues, including Britain,

00:40to disrupt any direct dialogue between Russia and the United States, any direct dialogue

00:45between President Putin and President Trump.

00:50This is because many attempts to resolve the conflict in Ukraine have been thwarted by both

00:54the British and Europeans.

00:57We remember Boris Johnson, who, after a peace agreement had essentially been reached, arrived,

01:03and having received a million pounds from his sponsors, said, no, we shouldn't negotiate

01:08a peace agreement with Russia.

01:10Therefore, these attempts by those who want to prolong the Ukrainian conflict are linked

01:15to the fact that the British economy is in dire straits, the EU economy is in dire straits,

01:21and it's important for them to portray Russia as an enemy.

01:25Therefore, we will continue discussions with the American side, we will continue the dialogue

01:32with the American side, clearly communicating Russia's position.

01:37Russia's position is that Russia's national interests must be respected, and that these sanctions

01:43and unfriendly measures will have absolutely no impact on the Russian economy.

01:48They will simply lead to higher prices at gas stations in the US, because oil prices have

01:53already risen and will continue to rise.

01:56Therefore, former US, President Joe Biden's positions, Biden's false narratives that are

02:02being imposed on the Trump administration, we have seen that they have never worked.

02:07We will convey to our American colleagues that they should not become Bidens, that they should

02:12not follow the utterly wrong and disastrous approaches of Biden and his administration.

02:18And it's also very important that we see that it's Ukraine that's dragging out the negotiations.

02:24It's Ukraine that doesn't want to resolve the problems, the accumulated issues that need

02:28to be addressed.

02:30And so we will also convey to our American colleagues that Ukraine, unfortunately, is disrupting the

02:37dialogue that's necessary, and it's disrupting it, again, at the request of the British,

02:43at the request of the Europeans, who want the conflict to continue.

02:48You know, we won't go into detail about who we're meeting with.

02:52We're meeting with several administration officials.

02:55There will also be another meeting, which I think will make public.

02:59But the discussions will primarily be behind closed doors about how to continue the dialogue,

03:05again based on respect for Russia's interests, and an understanding of Russia's position that

03:11the president spoke about yesterday.
