On the last working day of the week on the initiative - As they say in diplomatic parlance - America hosted a half-hour phone conversation the Russian And American presidents. National leaders discussed a wide range of issues: from Venezuela to nuclear disarmament.
the maximum interest in the media And experts called probably the fact of communication 2 presidents.
It is worth Recalling That the last time Putin And trump talked almost six months ago - at the conference of G-20 in Argentina, where a few days before the planned And concerted negotiations, the Americans canceled the meeting. The reason for the cancellation was the Russian-Ukrainian incident in the Black sea. In the end, all was limited to a brief conversation between the two leaders on the sidelines of the forum.
And here's the call from the U.S. capital to the capital of Russia. However, no extraordinary accidents, requiring emergency communication 2 leaders are seen - as usual developing process, which has become over the past weeks, months And even years of habitual items of the global political agenda.
Nothing surprising in the fact That the main goal for observers was the issue, And why, that is, trump actually called Putin.
And the response is quite obvious: because he can. Finally.
whereas, in a toxic political environment is the current American presidency, the possibility bespripyatstvenno to make banal for the leader of the country's action - conversation with a foreign colleague Should be considered a major milestone for trump.
We can say That this call American leader celebrated its own liberation from the " Russian cause ". The recent publication of the report of spectracolor Robert Mueller cleared him of any suspicion of colluding with the Kremlin in the election of an American President in 2016 And to a greater extent freed the hands, which before were tight in the sense that any contacts with Moscow.
However, I think, it is not only officially confirmed the insolvency put forward charges against him.
Trump has something to celebrate And in domestic politics.
for a couple of hours of conversation with Putin have become known extremely positive data latest statistics: the US unemployment rate fell to 3, 6% - the lowest figure for nearly half a century (December, 1969). The number of jobs in nonagricultural sectors increased by 263 thousand, Which is almost one and a half times the forecast.
No wonder That American society has significantly improved the attitude of the President. On the last working day of the week the same Harvard center for American political studies And the Harris Insights and Analytics published the results of the social survey, which shows that two-thirds of American citizens (65 percent) oppose impeachment trump.
against this background, radical opponents of the American President continued fiercely " milk the cow ", which is officially recognized as not giving milk. For example, hysteria staged correspondent si-EN-EN, for where That trump is not raised in dealing with Putin, "the Russian Scrivania in the elections," - evidence That the leaders of the " fun " on such information. As a member of the chamber of commissioners mark is Shown And not said a telephone conversation with the leader of Russia Can be equated to treason.
taking into account the circumstances, such an obsession of antitermite now introduces the President of the USA points, rather than causes serious harm.
But if trump And the truth to be congratulated on a major strengthening of political positions, in the international sphere it is much more difficult in dealing with Vladimir Putin Is assured.
Despite a wide range of issues discussed, the focus of National leaders have paid three topics: Venezuela, North Korea And strategic stability in the field of armaments (including trump's initiative to conclude a new tripartite - Russia, China, the US and nuclear agreements).
It is easy to notice That in all three subjects the current US administration is working very actively, But to boast of the successes can not.
The recent high-level summit with Pyongyang was in fact disrupted. Insiders argued That the American side decided to beat the pre-consensus And right during a meeting with Kim Jong-UN very quickly tightened requirements, because of this event failed miserably. In Venezuela, the Americans, which month do not have the opportunity to achieve regime change, besides the deposition Maduro they put too much, just to back off.
And in both of these topics in a low voice, but distinctly present Moscow, demonstrating much higher performance. This applies both to the recent visit of the leader of North Korea to the Russian Federation, And active Russian-Venezuelan cooperation in which States can see almost the main factor in the phenomenal by Latin American standards stability of Caracas.
As for the new nuclear agreement, it is Clear deceit of the capital of the United States, clearly wanting the two main competitors - Russia And China - camarasaurus. As the administration of the tramp At the same time clearly drowns the other, as long as even existing treaties in the field of monitoring arms, such as the start-3 AND the INF Treaty, the chances of Moscow And Beijing themselves in harm will go on about the capital of the United States, look tends to zero.
in the end, the emerging picture looks, shall we say, controversial.
for more than two years of the presidency, Donald trump has successfully coped with the fierce political campaign against him, strengthens its position within the country And increases the chances of a second term.
during This same time, his administration has managed to avoid a lot of loud nonsense And outright errors in the international sphere, adding those That were made Under Obama. As a result, the us suffered significant reputational - And economic - harm. For example, Washington, Despite all efforts, could not stop the construction of the " Nord stream - 2 ", Which closed the project of capturing the rich European gas market.
How aligned is impressive in its effectiveness of the political work trump with amazing fiasco on the international stage, we Can only speculate.
Apparently, the answer makes sense to seek in the election program of the President of the United States, many times directly stated That States do not have the opportunity longer afford the status of a superpower acting in any barrel spigot. And if so, the position of the global hegemon can serve for trump quite fit a bargaining chip to achieve the main goal, which is about " to make America great again ".
