A NEW ERA IN U.S.-RUSSIA RELATIONS

A new era in U.S-Russia relations is coming, one that will be driven by business relationships, rather than security concerns or other isues. Both Russia and the United States will work on problems together, instead of remaining consistently obstructed by a long history of toxic personal relationships. President-elect Trump is a man who is open for business and President Putin is a man who means business. The crux of world peace and general prosperity is contingent upon the two countries working in concert, rather than under the guise of suspicion and hatred.

REVIVING U.S.- RUSSIA RELATIONS

The Trump presidency may present an opportunity to revive the U.S.-Russia relationship. During their recent conversation Mr. Putin and Mr. Trump not only agreed on the absolutely unsatisfactory state of bilateral relations but also expressed support for active joint efforts to normalize relations and pursue constructive cooperation on the broadest possible range of issues.

HOW THE EU SHOULD DEAL WITH THE U.S. ?

If the EU and U.S. President-elect Donald Trump are going to work together, both sides need to understand what the other is looking to accomplish. This will be key to a positive future of transatlantic relations. The best way to get on the same page is to sit down and listen and to get the best understanding of each other’s perspective and then use that as the roadmap of moving ahead.
