21st Century Wire says…
Just days before the US inauguration, in his recent interview with the Times of London President-Elect Donald Trump signalled a lifting of US sanctions against Russia in the spirit of cooperation in nuclear arms reductions and also to partner in the fight radical Islamist Terror.

“They have sanctions on Russia — let’s see if we can make some good deals with Russia. For one thing, I think nuclear weapons should be way down and reduced very substantially,” said Trump.
Regarding a change in sanctions policy, Trump added, “Something can happen that a lot of people are going to benefit.”
