Riyadh:
The head of the Russian sovereign wealth fund described on Tuesday on US President Donald Trump as a problem solver prior to the American Russian conversations in Saudi Arabia, the first, at a high level, personal discussions in years between the two countries.
“We really see that President Trump and his team are a team of problem solvers, people who have already tackled a number of major challenges, very fast, very efficient and very successful,” Kirill Dmitriev reporters said in Riyadh.
Russia said that Foreign Affairs Minister Sergei Lavrov on Tuesday will discuss top-American officials, including State Secretary Marco Rubio, who will focus on terminating the Ukraine war and restoring “the entire complex” of Russia-US ties .
The conversations are intended to enter into a meeting between the American and Russian presidents.
Dmitriev, a former Goldman Sachs Bankier trained by the US, played a role in early contacts between Moscow and Washington during the first term of Trump as President of 2016-2020.
“It is very important to understand that American companies lost around $ 300 billion by leaving Russia. So there is a huge economic toll on many countries know what is happening now, and we believe as a way ahead through solutions, “Dmitriev said.
