Kremlin agreed on Tuesday with US President Donald Trump’s assertion that the G8’s exclusion of Russia in 2014 was a “mistake.” But, it added that the G7, in its present form, appeared “useless,” and that the G8 format then had little realistic value for Russia, according to Reuters, citing Kremlin. Trump had criticized the services of Barack Obama and Justin Trudeau for excluding Russia from the G8, which later became the G7. He claimed that if he had been president at the time, the Russia-Ukraine battle would not have taken place and called the decision a” major mistake.” ” The G7 was once the G8.” Russia was reportedly exempt about nine times before, which I think was a grave error. Officials from that time, such as Barack Obama and Justin Trudeau, opposed Russia, but it’s possible that we wouldn’t be in a battle today. He had stated on Monday while attending the G7 summit that if I were president four years ago, we wouldn’t be in a battle right then. Trump and Vladimir Putin agreed on a telephone call on Saturday to discuss how the growing conflicts between Iran and Israel need to be resolved. The conversation likewise briefly touched on the position of continued prisoner swaps and Russia’s war in Ukraine. Trump mentioned that Putin’s involvement in restarting peace negotiations after June 22 and that despite not being the main issue, they did speak about future trade efforts and approaching trade opportunities.
