MOSCOW – Russian government officials criticized the United States on Friday for requiring a resolution to the Ukraine conflict before pursuing economic partnerships between the two nations.<\/p>

Dmitry Peskov, who serves as the Kremlin’s chief spokesperson, argued that linking business cooperation to the war settlement is counterproductive for both countries.<\/p>

“We are wasting time, and American companies, just like our own, are missing out on the profits they could already be making,” Peskov stated during Friday’s briefing.<\/p>

The Russian official maintained that discussions about potential collaboration remain under consideration, emphasizing that Moscow and Washington “have many opportunities for mutually beneficial cooperation” despite current diplomatic tensions.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
