Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov on Thursday downplayed the cooling of relations between Moscow and Washington after the United States threatened a new round of sanctions.
When asked during a press conference in Moscow whether the positive trend in U.S.–Russia relations had faded, Ryabkov said he disagreed but said that the Trump administration was acting erratically.
