There is no "chemistry" and mutual love between the heads of the United States and Russia. This was told by the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov.

According to him, politicians, even if they are friends, should not deviate from their national interests, however, Trump always speaks sharply about his colleague.

"Chemistry at first sight, love at first sight - this is another opera. Putin and Trump have not yet been able to feel each other, "RIA Novosti quotes Peskov.

He stressed that despite Trump’s dislike for Putin, things can change. As an example, Peskov cited the relations of the Russian politician with the former Chancellor of Germany Gerhard Schroeder.

"This friendship continues to this day.. When Schroder was Chancellor, they argued quite toughly and uncompromisingly on current issues, "he added.

After the talks, answering journalists' questions, both presidents stressed that they are interested in improving relations between the two countries..
