Peskov: Trump has no influence on Russian affairs

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Friday that former US President and presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump appears to be showing greater understanding in keeping the lines of communication between Russia and the United States open, but in reality, it is having a significant impact. It does not affect the issues.

He [Trump] is showing a little more sense in terms of keeping the channels of communication going, but he’s not really having much of an impact on anything,” he told reporters.

He emphasized that if Trump is trying to change the subtle approach to Moscow, there should be no mistake that it has a significant effect in the larger context.

Trump has already claimed many times that he will end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours, according to this plan, he plans to pressure Kiev to hand over Crimea and the border region of Donbass to Russia.
