MOSCOW. June 27 (Interfax) - United States President Donald Trump believes that his meeting with the Russian leader Vladimir Putin will benefit both countries and help strengthen peace worldwide despite all the political noise, the U.S. President's National Security Advisor John Bolton said.
"A lot of the President's critics have tried to make political capital out of theories and suppositions that have turned out to be completely erroneous," Bolton told a press conference at the Interfax head office on Wednesday.
"But I think the president determined that despite the political noise in the United States, that direct communication between him and President Putin was in the interests of the United States, in the interests of Russia, and in the interests of peace and security around the world," he said.
