In a news conference following talks with visiting U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and a two-hour joint meeting Russian President Vladimir Putin, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the discussions were fruitful, underlining good prospects for future joint work.

"It has been a long day...The talks were comprehensive, frank and covered the whole spectrum of issues, which are key to our bilateral relations and interaction on the international affairs," The minister said.

According to Lavrov, the two parties reaffirmed their determination in the talks for the uncompromising fight against international terrorism and had deepgoing discussions in that context about grim situations in various regions including Syria, Yemen, Libya and Afghanistan as well as possible cooperation in addressing those issues.

"With all the existing problems, both objective and artificially created ones, we still have quite a few prospects for joint work.Russia is open to dialogues with the U.S. in different areas, and not only to dialogues but also to joint actions," he said.

Echoing the Russian stance on cooperation, Tillerson said that Russia and the U.S. will continue discussions about how to find a solution to the Syrian conflict.

"Foreign Minister Lavrov and I agreed we would consider further proposals made about the way forward in Syria, including consulting with our allies and coalition members." Tillerson said in the news conference.

Tensions between Moscow and Washington have further aggravated over Syria after the U.S. missile strike on a Syrian military airfield Thursday, which it claims to be in response to the alledged Syrian government's chemical weapons attack last Tuesday in Khan Sheikhoun.

Earlier in an interview broadcast on Wednesday before the meeting with Tillerson, Putin said that mutual trust between Russiaand the U.S., especially on the military level, had eroded in the first few months of Trump's presidency.

Putin's view was share by Tillerson who, on the first visit by the Trump cabinet to Russia, said that ties between the two countries were at a low point marked by serious distrust.

"There is a low level of trust between our two countries. The world's two foremost nuclear powers cannot have this kind of relationship," he said in the news conference, adding that Moscow and Washington had agreed to establish a working group to identify problems and improve bilateral relations.

With a shared willingness to mend the battered ties, Russia and the U.S. agreed on Wednesday to work together on an investigation of the Syrian chemical weapons attack, although the divergence in their stances have not changed much.

Tillerson reiterated Washington is "quite confident" that the recent chemical attack was planned and executed by Syrian government forces, which involved chlorine bombs and other chemical weapons on more than 50 occasions.

Calling for an "objective and unbiased probe" into the chemical attack in Syria, Lavrov said that Russia has no intention to shield anyone responsible for the incident and repeated Russia's view that the Syrian government was not responsible for the attack.

Russia vetoed on late Wednesday a UN resolution demanding the Syrian government cooperate with an investigation of the suspected chemical attack, saying that Moscow had consistently expressed its "categorical disagreement" with the draft resolution, which led to further criticism from the West including the U.S..

"The international community has spoken. Russia now has a lot to prove," U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haley said.

Here's Why Trump Decided to Breathe New Life into Russia

What would happen if the United States lifted economic sanctions against Russia?

Since the Russia annexed Crimea, the United States led the western countries have imposed economic sanction on Russia for three years.

Now president Trump has hinted that he will lift economic sanctions against Russia in return for cooperation with Russia in other international affairs.

Economic sanctions against Russia and the Russian government is a chain for their economy, and now Trump wants to get rid of this chain, absolutely he will face strong opposition from the Congress of the United States and the United States allies.

What does it mean for Russia if Trump really lifts economic sanctions against Russia?

William Jackson, senior emerging markets economist at Capital Economics, said that removing the sanctions would provide a meaningful boost to Russia's struggling economy.

"They are still very damaging to the business environment," he said of the sanctions. "There's no question about the pressure on the economy."

Europe and the United States are trying to stop the Russian economy going into the western financial system, but also prevent Russia to buy oil from the western exploration technology and equipment, and related services etc..

  

Russia's economy suffered economic sanctions, and also suffered a sharp fall in international oil prices, these two factors make Russia's economy eroded. The economy shrank by 3.7% in 2015 and 0.7% in 2016. Inflation skyrocketed and the value of the ruble collapsed.

The Russian government had to adjust economic policy, and gradually the Russian economy began to recover. The International Monetary Fund said in November that after absorbing some of the shocks from low oil prices and sanctions, Russia's economy is likely to return to growth this year.

Benefit ordinary people in Russia

"Firms would be able to increase investment and hiring, which would result in higher employment and disposable incomes," Jackson said.

In response to western economic sanctions, Russia banned imports of fresh food from western countries. This has led to a shortage of food and rising prices in Russia.

After the lifting of economic sanctions, the Russian people will benefit from the country, the lives of ordinary Russian people will be much easier.

Oil and gas

Economic sanctions forced Russia's energy companies to stop some of their projects. Russian oil companies and Russian gas companies can export oil and gas to repay the debt they have borrowed, but also access to funds to support new development projects.

Now they are banned buying equipment and technology from the west. A lifting of sanctions could help boost exploration and efficiency.

 Cash available

The removal of U.S. sanctions would help Russian companies access desperately needed cash.

The sanctions are designed to cut off Russian firms from Western funds -- restrictions that have led to a downturn in investment and new projects.

In addition, Russia's banks can also benefit from the abolition of economic sanctions. At least 5 Russian banks have been blocked from raising cash in the West.

  

Europe's response to Russia's economic sanctions

Even if Trump decides to lift economic sanctions against Russia, EU countries will not be able to catch up soon.

But Jackson said that even if the U.S. decides to lift sanctions unilaterally, it would be enough to significantly boost Russia's economy.

"My sense is that the U.S. sanctions might be more important, because of the importance of the dollar as the global reserve currency," he said.

The man who stands behind Trump’s Twitter, you will be surprised

Did Trump pee on Sasha Grey? The truth is no. But you may wonder why this middle-age man who is going to take over the white house uses Twitter even more than you. Here is some investigation combined with related news updating.

Do Trump has the political elite quality? He has his MOUTH. You may surprisingly find he and the Yeezus Rapper Kanye West has so much in common, not only because they were born under the same astrological sign - Gemini. He should be a business type Kanye West. So does he have the talents on politics?

Barack Obama said clearly, “First of all, I think everybody has to acknowledge: Don't underestimate the guy, because he's going to be 45th president of the United States,” Obama told 60 Minutes' Steve Kroft.

While some opinion spreaders think he will quit the fresh president-elect title very soon, in consideration of his personality, talents, media relationships and the leading type.

    

Why Mr. Trump relies on Twitter so much. Is his mind digesting information every second? Is it beneficial to the Americans? He acts largely to call Taiwan president a president, which makes China redden her face. He speaks so straightly, exactly like Kanye. His upcoming inauguration can be a real doozy!

It is a fact Trump has bigger advantage over Barack Obama as he has an astounding 46 million followers, while President Obama @Potus has just 13.5 million currently. We are sure Trump will be leading with more and more.

He is America’s first president with a personal Twitter account in America’s 200 and more years’ history. You may be shocked. Don’t. Twitter is young though. He will stick to his personal account, according to an interview with the UK's Sunday Times.

He once told the Sunday Times:

"I'd rather just let that build up and just keep it @realDonaldTrump.

It's working...and the tweeting, I thought I'd do less of it, but I'm covered so dishonestly by the press, so dishonestly, that I can put out Twitter - and it's not 140, it's now 280 - I can go bing bing bing...and they put it on and as soon as I tweet it out. This morning on television, Fox - 'Donald Trump, we have breaking news.'"

NBC News reporter Kelly O'Donnell confirmed the news with the president-elect's transition team:

While Trump continues to tweet away, his transition team preps for the Inauguration where he will take the reign from Obama after eight years in office.

Donald Trump Say No to CNN

Here’s What’s Trump said.

The Middle East (ISIS)/Russia/islamic Countries

‘If Putin likes Donald Trump, I consider this as an asset, not a liability. Because we have a horrible relationship with Russia. Russia can help us to fight ISIS, which by the way is number one tricky. I mean, if you look at this administration, (they) created ISIS, by leaving at the wrong time. The void was created and ISIS was formed. If Putin likes Donald Trump, guess what folks, that's called an asset, not a liability.’

The Mexican Border Issue

Trump once again stressed that he will pay for the US-Mexico border wall project which seems as one of images of Trump. He said that the U.S. government will pay the costs first because he wants to get the wall started. He doesn't want to wait a year and a half. At the same time, he promised to negotiate further with the Mexican government and would come to Mexico in some form to reimburse all expenses.

 The Supreme Court

Eleven months ago, the United States Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia died of illness, his seat has been vacant so far, Trump announced that he would propose his proposed appointment of justice to Congress as soon as possible after taking office. Congress can vote for his nominees as soon as possible. He said he was looking forward to his appointment as soon as possible and had met with many excellent candidates.

     

Russia intelligence Crisis Handling Charges American Election

In fact, we didn’t see the change of Trump's attitude; it is the media's misinterpretation of Trump's intention. Trump meaning cleared that attack existed, but not only Russia, in order to correct the erroneous claims of the media, but did not change his original argument.

Reform of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act

Trump said he will reform of the patient protection and affordable care act which was put forward by Obama.

Donations to Finance Department

Trump will donate all profits from foreign government payments made to his hotels to the United States Treasury.

Handover group management

He would put his business assets in a trust, but not divest. His company, now run by his sons, will still go after deals in the US — but not abroad — while he is president.

Say No to CNN

Donald Trump refused to take a question from CNN’s Senior White House Correspondent. The reporter Jim Acosta was in a stalemate with Trump for about thirty seconds.
