Kremlin says Putin, Trump to hold substantive meeting at G20 in Argentina

Source: Reuters




NOVEMBER 2, 2018 / 9:05 AM / UPDATED AN HOUR AGO

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S President Donald Trump will meet for a long session on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Argentina in a month’s time, a Kremlin aide said on Friday.

A separate meeting between the leaders on Nov. 11 during events in Paris to commemorate the centenary of the end of World War One would be short, said the aide, Yuri Ushakov.

The two leaders have not met face-to-face since a bilateral summit in July in Helsinki that stirred anger in the United States, where Trump was accused of cozying up to the Kremlin.

Asked how long Moscow expected the meeting with Trump to last in Paris, Ushakov told reporters the meeting would be short but that a later meeting on the sidelines of the G20, taking place over Nov 30 and Dec 1, would be “lengthy and substantive”.

So Trump is going to be giving Putin oral pleasure again?

It is so nice that the Russians are telling us what our President is going to do.


Good God in Butter please get something going Bob Mueller I just can't take too
much more of this insanity. Trump is going to meet in public and private w/the
thug who stole our elections this is really nuts.

will handle the ways and means (trade, appropriation, etc) to control the areas they pressure their tool leaders to hand over to globalists. I'm just theorizing here, obviously.

It also smells like it's probably about reassurances to their tools that they'll get help handling the social solidarity triumvirate of VE, CU and NI.

In Paris, it will be about ways to pressure Merkel's successor.
