welcome back. the u.s. state department is pushing back after the kremlin claimed yesterday that diplomatic dialogue between russia and the u.s. has frozen. the kremlin spokesman told a state-sponsored news agency that the u.s. and russia don t communicate with one another, or if they do, it s just minimal. he said the kremlin expects donald trump s administration to take a, quote, fresher and more constructive approach, although he did caution against excessive optimism. so the state department very quickly hit back against the kremlin s claims, pointing out secretary of state john kerry just talked with the russian foreign minister as recently as tuesday. i don t know what to make of his comments. i think you should ask him what he means by his comments. from our perspective, there s no break in the dialogue. communications are not froze. that s not the way we would describe it. that doesn t mean that we agree on everything.
