Ups and turns: how Russia and the United States emerged from acute crises

Personal meetings of the leaders have repeatedly helped to normalize bilateral relations

On May 20, the head of the White House reiterated that he and the Russian leader have good relations. Five days later, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov had a telephone conversation with American Secretary of State Marco Rubio. During the meeting, the politicians discussed the situation in Ukraine, the escalation in the Middle East and personal bilateral relations. Moscow's position was conveyed to Washington.

Then Lavrov reminded the American side of the agreements reached at the highest level in Anchorage. As early as March 5, he pointed to the gradual "weathering of the spirit" that the leaders managed to achieve at that time. The next day, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov commented on the progress of the Russian-American dialogue. According to him, although it is slow, it is still moving forward.
