MOSCOW, June 5. /TASS/. Wednesday’s phone call between President Vladimir Putin of Russia and President Donald Trump of the United States predictably caused an uproar in the Western deep state and the media outlets it controls, Kirill Dmitriev, CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), said.
"Yesterday’s telephone conversation between President Vladimir Putin of Russia and President Donald Trump of the United States took place in a constructive atmosphere, predictably causing panic in the Western deep state and the media it controls," he wrote on Telegram.
According to Dmitriev, it’s such signals of a possible dialogue and de-escalation that disrupt "their usual way of operating, predicated on lies and confrontation."
Dmitriev pointed out that the West and the media under its control saw any prospect for dialogue and cooperation as a direct threat to the system built on what he called "managed instability." However, it’s cooperation, not confrontation, that serves the real interests of the majority of countries in the world, contributing to the strengthening of global security, the official stressed.
On June 4, the presidents of Russia and the US held their fourth phone call since Trump had taken office. The heads of state discussed the situation in Ukraine, with Puin detailing the outcome of the Istanbul talks with Ukraine and assessing the Kiev regime’s terrorist attacks. Russian Presidential Aide Yury Ushakov told a briefing after the call that the leaders had also touched upon a number of other issues.
