The Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev said that the phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his American counterpart Donald Trump showed that the West's hopes for victory over Russia will never come true, Reuters reported, quoted by BTA.
"In our small, contradictory, but very interdependent world, there is not and cannot be a main state and a supreme ruler of the planet", Medvedev said. He stressed that this lesson should be learned by "the arrogant American elites and the so-called deep state". "They cannot bring us to our knees, and the sooner our opponents understand this, the better", he added.
Trump announced on his social network Truth Social that he had a conversation with Putin, in which the two discussed the possibility of ending the war in Ukraine.
"We agreed to work together, in close cooperation, including through mutual visits to our countries," Trump wrote.
The Kremlin confirmed the information about the conversation.
