US, WASHINGTON (ORDO NEWS) — Russia supports the USA with medical equipment and protective clothing. The material will be delivered on an airplane that is scheduled to take off this Tuesday.
This was announced by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov. In view of the “terrible epidemiological situation”, Russia offered this help. Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US colleague Donald Trump had called each other on Monday.
The offer comes as a surprise because the relationship between the two countries has been bad for years. Among other things, the US secret service sees it as proven that Russia interfered in the 2016 US presidential election. Trump had then won against Hillary Clinton.
Peskow said that acting in partnership “now that everyone is affected by the situation without exception” has no alternative. Trump had previously announced that a “very large aircraft load” of medical equipment would come from Russia.
Russia has already supported Italy with doctors and medical equipment. Russia had also sent a political signal there.
