Moscow, June 12 (Xinhua) — Russia and the United States, as great powers, despite their differences, are doomed to non-confrontational peaceful coexistence, Russian Ambassador to Washington Alexander Darchiev said at a reception at the embassy on the occasion of Russia Day on Wednesday, Russian media reported.
“Despite the differences between our countries and the toxic legacy of the previous period, which Presidents /Vladimir/ Putin and /Donald/ Trump agreed to overcome through joint efforts, Russia and the United States are doomed as great powers to non-confrontational peaceful coexistence,” he emphasized.
