MOSCOW: Restoring a dialogue and trade exchanges between Moscow and London meets the common interests of both countries and Russia is ready for this, Russian President Putin said at a ceremony of receiving credentials from foreign ambassadors, including from the UK envoy, in the Kremlin on Wednesday.
“The current state of relations between Russia and Great Britain hardly satisfies both sides. We are convinced that restoring a mutually respectful dialogue, strengthening trade and economic exchanges and building up cultural and humanitarian contacts meet common interests. And we are ready for this,” Putin said.
Speaking before the ambassadors who took part in the ceremony of presenting their credentials, Putin pointed to the dynamic development of Russian-Bangladeshi ties, including in trade and in the sphere of the civilian nuclear power. The Russian leader said he hoped for the continued close cooperation of the two countries in the UN and other multilateral organizations.
The Russian president also spoke for developing relations with Panama, improving the contractual and legal framework and strengthening contacts in the economic sphere.
