Putin and Trump as the leaders of two superpowers one day will take a summit. Russian President said that he opened to the idea of the face-to-face meeting in Slovenia, the birthplace of Melania.
Vladimir Putin welcomes the idea of the summit with Donald Trump in the future, moreover, the Russian leader considers Slovenia’s capital as a possible place to meet each other. According to Russian news agency Interfax, Vladimir Putin said:
“Ljubljana — and Slovenia in general — is, of course, a great place to hold such dialogue. If this meeting takes place someday, we have nothing against Ljubljana (as the venue).”
As a matter of fact, the idea to make Ljubljana, Melania’s birthplace, a place for the summit was firstly pushed by the Slovenian Prime Minister Miro Cerar. In November, he raised the prospect of a Russian-American summit in his country.
While the European politicians look this meeting as the bridge between the two superpowers, Vladimir Putin already had a meeting with the President of the US in Ljubljana: in June 2001 George Bush found Russian leader ‘very straightforward and trustworthy.’
