Putin's special envoy, Kirill Dmitriev, plays a decisive role in persuading the Trump team to agree to economic deals with the Russian Federation even before the end of the war in Ukraine, writes the French Le Monde. He tells the American government about the benefits of economic cooperation with Moscow and proposes large-scale projects. In particular, we are talking about joint projects in the energy sector, civil aviation, mining of rare earth elements, artificial intelligence and other technologies. The recently completed diesel deal, according to a Moscow diplomat, could be the start of a much larger collaboration. As the Russian researcher Andrey Pertsev of the Carnegie Center points out, Dmitriev understands the interests of the American leadership very well and builds a negotiation strategy taking into account their interests. "He knows that Mr. Trump and his representatives prefer mega-projects," Pertsev says. According to Le Monde, these tactics have already brought results. In particular, Vitkoff became interested in the prospects of large joint projects, and Trump's attitude towards Russia became more favorable to Moscow.
