Russland: Hardliner
(27.06.2017)
Der private Nachrichtendienst Strategic Forecast berichtet, Russland plane seinen bisherigen US-Botschafter abzuziehen und durch einen Hardliner zu ersetzten: „Russia will replace Sergei Kislyak, its ambassador to the United States since 2008, U.S. officials confirmed June 26. Kislyak has stood at the center of a firestorm of suspicions and accusations in Washington over his relationship with the administration of President Donald Trump and the White House transition team. His replacement, Deputy Foreign Minister Anatoly Antonov, is considered a hard-line personality who will hold a stricter line in negotiations.” (jw)
