On the meeting tomorrow in Saudi Arabia, Rubio and Lavrov
held a conversation about the following topics
The topics they discussed were:
- Maintaining a channel of communication.
- Engagement to address pressing international issues: such as the situation around Ukraine, developments related to Palestine and broader issues in the Middle East.
- Exchange of views to finalize the policy of former President Barack Obama's Administration in 2016.
- Organization of an expert meeting in the near future.
- Reaffirmation of joint work.
- Agreement to seek regular contact.
Some are considering one of the ways in which the US is attempting to address the situation in the Middle East regarding Tel Aviv and Teheran is by using Russia's influence, which if so, it's kind of brilliant, but we shall see.
On another news, the flirting between Russia and the US is reaching all sorts of highs, see below:
I realize Trump is way, way off in certain topics, but I have been thinking about the feeling of hope his administration creates, and I think one may mistake it as Trump being in office as reality will become what I want it to become. But I don't think that's quite it, I think the reason it feels right is because there's no resistance as his presence there is the will of the people of the United States.
I think right or wrong is probably the incorrect way to analyze it, I think one way or the other, or one sometimes and sometimes the other, this is the will of the people in the US I think that's where he gets his energy to push on so rapidly.
What I am trying to say is that, Trump isn't here to save the world, but to be the representative of the will of his people. And those two things aren't the same thing.
