Moscow, October 20: Despite the current tensions in US-Russia relation, Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed his hope for a better US-Russia relation. Russian President thinks joint efforts can solve the prevailing problems.

Taking down of Russian flags, closures of diplomatic missions have been described as anti-Russia hysteria in the US. He said recent tensions are the result of collective problems. He expressed his disappointment that he had to discuss such negative things.

"It is in the US that an anti-Russian campaign was launched for no reason. Somebody simply lost the election to Mr. Trump, the whole blame was put on Russia and frantic anti-Russian hysteria was launched. I cannot call it otherwise. Any issue, any failure of somebody is associated with Russia. (They say) on any issue: look for the Russian trace, and they immediately find it," he stressed on election meddling issue.

He reminded the recent decline cannot surpass the previous achievements in relation. US support for Russia’s WTO bid was cited by him. He mentioned Bill Clinton’s support when he was making first steps back as prime minister.
