[ad_1]
Ambassador-at-Large of the Russian Foreign Ministry Marat Berdyev said that the United States of America, through bilateral channels, informed the Russian Federation that it would not invite Russian President Vladimir Putin to the APEC summit, which will be held in San Francisco.
According to him, US representatives said that they would not invite a number of leaders of other countries to the summit this year, since sanctions restrictions apply to them.
“We continue to work with Washington to get US representatives to fulfill their obligations as host of the summit,” Berdyev said.
He clarified that this decision by the White House shows “the bad faith of the American side,” as well as a tendency to “maintain a confrontational approach to issues of multilateral economic cooperation.”
