Despite the fact that a full-scale meeting between the Russian and American leaders, as originally planned, did not work out, Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump still managed to communicate in the Champs Elysees. This happened during a discussion during lunch as part of the events marking the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I.


This discussion, which was held informally, without the presence of journalists, was also attended by French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Angela Merkel. And, although Trump and Putin were not sitting side by side, this did not interfere with the conversation.

As Trump spokeswoman Sarah Sanders later said, policy They discussed various issues, including: the agreement on the elimination of intermediate and shorter-range missiles, the settlement of the situation in Syria, the situation in Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan and the DPRK. They touched and economic topics: sanctions and trade.

They had a very good and productive discussion over a two hour lunch

- summed up Sanders.

For his part, Putin also confirmed that he managed to talk with Trump. However, he did not go into details about either the time or the topics of discussion.

It should be recalled that US Presidential Adviser on National Security John Bolton previously announced a bilateral meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin. However at the last moment she fell off: the French president opposed, arguing that such negotiations would overshadow all the events prepared by the Champs Elysees for the centenary of the end of the First World War.
