RUSSIA AND USA RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING GLOBAL SECURITY AND STABILITY.

—–“”We are ready to do our part and do everything to return (US-Russian) relations to the trajectory of development. … This would be in the interest of Russian and American people and would positively affect the general climate in international relations, considering the special responsibility of Russia and the US for ensuring global stability and security.”—Putin.
