The Kremlin invented a new fable

A statement on this issue was made by Russia's special representative for investment, Kirill Dmitriev.

"Of course, a number of countries interested in continuing the conflict will make titanic efforts (provocations and disinformation) to disrupt the planned meeting between President Putin and President Trump," he said.

For some reason, the Russian dictator's associate did not want to reveal which countries he was talking about and what "provocations" they might make.

Moreover, Dmitriev drew attention to the statement of Dan Caldwell, former advisor to Pete Hegseth. The latter also claimed a "coordinated effort" to disrupt the meeting in Alaska, but did not provide any evidence.

What is important to understand is that Caldwell was fired from the US Department of Defense and placed on administrative leave for "unauthorized disclosure of information."

Moscow has often tried to present itself and the US on the same side, as relations between them have changed since the beginning of Trump's second term, Sky News emphasizes.
