The information on a baby born to Vladimir Putin is false. I am going to ask people who have money to organize a contest on the best media rumor.

This is a perverted perception of ambassador's job to say that every contact with a Russian ambassador is potentially dangerous and potentially can put in a line of activities interfering in domestic affairs.

Mr. Tillerson has always been quite a tough negotiator and we understand that he's using lots of information and materials that have been prepared by people in State of Department who, well modestly, speaking are not the fans of my country and of revival of bilateral relationship between America and Russia.

It's not about preferring someone, it's about whose ideas are more close to you and whose ideas are more welcomed in Russian public opinion. Let's not forget about public opinion in our country. It's very influential and it's very powerful.

All our, let's say, incomes are really very well, transparent to those organs who need these information and who are in charge of combating corruption in our country.

I think if Rusian and U.S. presidents meet each other, if they exchange views, then there will be a chance for our volatile relations to get better.

There are certain people in the United States and they want to and they insist on, upon using Russian card in their game, but domestic game. We're very sorry about that and we consider it wrong actually because, well, further damage to our relationship is not in the interest of our people, people of the United States and people of the Russian federation.
