Russian president Putin out with a statement 17 May

  • anti-Russian feeling in US is damaging to USA
  • Trump is not being allowed to work properly
  • can give record of Trump/Lavrov conservation to US Congress and Senate

All together now, Vlad and Don sitting in a tree, K.I.S.S.I.N.G !

Ok, ok trolls/politicos. Just teasing and trying to lighten the mood. Play nicely out there please.

Update 11.41: Kremlin says Putin prepared to hand over transcript not audio recording.

I wonder why not.

Meanwhile USDJPY a tad higher at 112.44 , USDCHF 0.9840 while GBPUSD retreats further to 1.2960 and EURUSD sticks to 1.1100
