Sergey Naryshkin noted that "there are clear tendencies toward isolationism, which US President Donald Trump and US Vice President JD Vance do not hide"
MOSCOW, December 18. /TASS/. The United States’ new national security strategy puts America's interests first, a rational approach, Sergey Naryshkin, director of Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), said in an interview with TASS.
"Of course, it is pro-American, and it is very sound. Undoubtedly, it is based on US national interests," Naryshkin said in response to a question on the matter.
He added that "there are clear tendencies toward isolationism, which [US President Donald] Trump and [US Vice President JD] Vance do not hide." "Therefore, I would like to once again emphasize that it aims to ensure a rational approach to foreign relations in the interests of the country’s population," the SVR chief concluded.
Tell you what Ivan. You stay in your backyard and we’ll stay in ours.
And our back yard is the entire western hemisphere.
“I’ll have the eastern half of his western sandwich.”
No one thought they were stupid.
