Russians Not US Friends, But Areas Exist for Cooperation, White House Security Adviser Says

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) – While Russia is not a friend of the United States there are areas where the two nations can collaborate, US National Security Adviser Robert O’Brien said on Tuesday.

“They [Russians] are not our friends but there are areas where we can cooperate with the Russians”, O’Brien said at a security summit. “We’d like to get an arms control deal with them”.

O’Brien said he delivered a strong message to his Russian counterpart on election interference. He said China, Iran and other countries are also looking to influence the US elections.
