“Stability in the world depends on us”, Putin’s message to Trump for the 4th of July

“I am confident – he continues – that the establishment of constructive, fair and mutually beneficial relations between Moscow and Washington serves the interests not only of our peoples, but also of the entire international community”.

Also the Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov congratulated the American people, with a message published on the website of the Russian Foreign Ministry. This anniversary, he writes, “is being celebrated at a crucial moment for the world order. Despite the strenuous resistance of Western countries, a more just and balanced multipolar model of international development is emerging to replace the era of their global hegemony.”

“By building an authentic dialogue – he continues – Moscow and Washington are able to achieve significant results and find effective solutions to the most complex global and regional problems“. “I am confident that by promoting frank dialogue based on equality, mutual respect and non-interference in internal affairs, and by prioritizing mutual consideration of fundamental national interests, Russia and the United States are well positioned to achieve concrete results and jointly identify effective solutions to the most complex global and regional challenges.”

“I offer my congratulations to the American people. I wish peace and prosperity, in the hope that the principles of the United States Declaration of Independence, which establish the right of every individual to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, may be fully realized,” he says.
