MOSCOW. June 26 (Interfax) - The statement by U.S. President Donald Trump allowing for a meeting with Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is a step in the right direction, Director of the Russian Foreign Ministry's Latin America Department Alexander Shchetinin told Interfax on Friday.
"We believe that the message sent by the U.S. president, who has allowed for a face-to-face with President Maduro, is a step in the right direction," Shchetinin said.
