The political scientist connected the visit of the Russian delegation to the United States with the need to emphasize the importance of humanitarian contacts. The Russian Federation is ready to cooperate "even with the enemy" to protect human life. This opinion was shared by the co-founder of the Center for International Interaction and Cooperation, Alexei Malinin, on the radio station "Moscow Speaks". The visit is required to emphasize the importance of contacts and humanitarian activities in the context of the conflict. Obviously, there are military tasks, tasks related to ensuring security, but in principle, everything our country does, it does first of all for the sake of the people. As Vladimir Putin said: The most important thing is not territories, not abstract concepts, the most important thing is the lives of specific people. And if specific people face specific problems, then it is the humanitarian authorities that should help. And here it is necessary from time to time to coordinate even with the enemy, which is Ukraine. The visit to the United States was intended to confirm the feasibility of this practice and its prospects.
