Readout of the President’s Call with President Vladimir Putin of Russia
THE WHITE HOUSE
Office of the Press Secretary
June 25, 2015
President Vladimir Putin of the Russian Federation called President Obama today. They discussed the necessity of countering ISIL and developments in the Middle East, as well as the situation in Ukraine. President Obama reiterated the need for Russia to fulfill its commitments under the Minsk agreements, including the removal of all Russian troops and equipment from Ukrainian territory. The leaders discussed the increasingly dangerous situation in Syria, and underscored the importance of continued P5+1 unity in ongoing negotiations to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.
There is an old Ukrainian saying--if a "volunteer, vacationer, mercenary, former active duty service member is driving a T-72B2 THEN in fact he is Russian".
Maybe Obama needs to send Putin a certified copy of the Minsk 2 Agreement??
Another great example of Putin through such activity--- is trying to show his own civil population Russia is not isolated and he is equal to the superpower---the US "because see they are talking with me."
Just as the Russian media "crowed" "see the US DoS Kerry came to us at Sochi".
