It’s an unfortunate state of affairs when you cannot review the U.S. media take on the phone call due to the propaganda script that underpins the Western narrative they promote. Instead, a more direct and reliable review of the important discussion comes from the Russian Federation side.
RUSSIA – […] Of course, today’s conversation between the two heads of state began with President Putin congratulating Donald Trump and the American people on their landmark holiday and recalling Russia’s contribution to the development of American statehood. In this context, the presidents noted the importance of treasuring the historical heritage which our nations share. It was pointed out that our nations will never forget their alliance during World War II.
The United States is widely celebrating Independence Day today. This is being done in style and on a grand scale, as Donald Trump knows how to do it, and our President has mentioned this.
Their conversation, the fourth one this year, was not only formal but also business-like and constructive. The leaders candidly discussed current issues on the bilateral and international agenda. Incidentally, that conversation lasted nearly an hour and a half, or more precisely, 85 minutes.
Naturally, the presidents also talked about a Ukrainian settlement, including in light of Donald Trump’s participation in the upcoming NATO summit in Turkiye on July 7–8.
The US President reaffirmed his readiness to facilitate an early termination of the hostilities and the search for peaceful solutions to the crisis. His special envoys – Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner – will carry on their mediation efforts and are ready to come to Moscow at our convenience.
The Russian President reaffirmed our commitment to a political and diplomatic settlement of the conflict, with due consideration for Russia’s known principled approaches.
However, Kiev and its Western sponsors rely on drawing out and even escalating the conflict and terrorising civilians. Moreover, the European “party of war” proceeds from a false perception of the overall situation and developments on the frontline. Our President has outlined the real situation on the battlefield, where the Russian Armed Forces are confidently advancing, liberating one settlement after another.
The establishment of control over one of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ key fortified settlements, Konstantinovka, is an important stage in the liberation of the Donetsk People’s Republic. No matter how hard the Kiev regime clings to the remaining fortified areas, our army will definitely take them.
Regarding the situation around Iran, Vladimir Putin has expressed hope that the negotiation process based on the memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran will help find mutually acceptable long-term solutions to the key aspects of the settlement. We have confirmed our readiness to provide practical assistance with the de-escalation and stabilisation efforts in the region. On his part, Donald Trump thanked the Russian side for our balanced stance and constructive proposals.
With respect to bilateral relations, the presidents stressed the importance of continuing the contacts, including on military, political and, certainly, economic issues. There is colossal potential for mutually beneficial cooperation between our countries. Donald Trump stressed that for these prospects to be realised, it is necessary to put a stop to the Ukrainian conflict as soon as possible.
It was noted during the conversation that the upcoming launch of a Russian-US crew from the Baikonur Space Launch Centre to the International Space Station is symbolic. This joint project is a specific example proving the two powers’ interest in close cooperation across different fields.
Naturally, the same is true about culture that unites our congenial nations. Incidentally, Donald Trump mentioned that he personally admires The Hermitage in St Petersburg.
The presidents talked about football as well. Considering Russia’s 2018 experience, Vladimir Putin wished the United States success with the FIFA World Cup.
The leaders agreed to maintain contact and have another telephone conversation shortly. The President of Russia reminded Donald Trump that he has a standing invitation to visit Russia.
It should be noted that the Russian side initiated the previous telephone conversation on June 14, when Donald Trump celebrated his 80th birthday. This time, the initiative to arrange a conversation on the 250th anniversary of US independence notably came from our American partners. (SOURCE)
“The United States is widely celebrating Independence Day today. This is being done in style and on a grand scale, as Donald Trump knows how to do it,…”
Indeed.
Ukraine: the 53rd State.
Ugh. Never!
don’t think so.
No way, nothing but grifters in their government.
Never
No.
No telling what they’re saying on the “mainstream” media, (never touch the stuff, myself!) but it’s bound to be just terrible!
gypsies, tramps and thieves. Oh wait, got it mixed up with Congress.

Normalizing the U.S. relationship with Russia, Russia and U.S. becoming allies, may be the most important thing President Trump is trying to do.
two sentences that made my geopolitical day 😁 :
“ There is colossal potential for mutually beneficial cooperation between our countries.”
that’s COLOSSAL, which means they’re working on it already!”
The President of Russia reminded Donald Trump that he has a standing invitation to visit Russia.”
i hope the time is soon right to take that trip – i suspect PT would love it!
great to see the continuing communications.
suspect strongly that’s the reason behind non-intervention on both sides when it counts.
Russia is a competitor, but not an opponent.
That is the role China plays.
The Eurocucks and Euroskanks think they are our opponents. But outside of playing kickball a little better because our best athletes play tackle football and basketball, they can’t compete with us in anyting. They are neighborhood punks who run when we flex.
Iran would like to be an opponent, but they are merely a ring of muz zy suburbs full of Targets.
Canada plays the role of the snotnose neighbor kid whose Karen mommy gets bent when you hose down her little creep for trying to urinate on your lawn and getting his shorts wet in the process.
And our country’s Dems and Rino GOPers laugh when they sell us out. Judas Iscariot at least regretted selling Christ out. This implies Judas was a morally superior being to the vast majority of politicians in this country.
A GREAT last paragraph to your post. I cannot nor will not compare our country to Jesus Christ, but the rest of it is Spot On!!
Most of the politicians turned away from God a long time ago. They are into self-worship, which means they have idiots for deities.
I was just using the example of Judas feeling remorse for his crime.
Thay don’t. And they sell us out openly and routinely.
As an alternative to Judas and Christ, how about this?
Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, who were fried for sending nuclear secrets to the Soviet Union, did so for the cause of Communism, not money. They were willing to sacrifice for something they perceived to be bigger than themselves. Most of our politicians do it for money, power, and/or sexual jollies. And a few committed other crimes and indiscretions that made them blackmail targets.
Again, the Rosenbergs didn’t expect quid pro quo for their treason. This implies they were morally superior to the Dems and the the RINO GOPers.
Your Canada analogy is the best thing I’ve read on the Internet all week!
I’m happy to have brought a little sunshine for your day! Thank you!
Great celebration!!
God bless America!!
Great to hear so many Europeans have expressed surprise at how wonderful USA is! We are so blessed in the country! MAGA!!
Such has been the depth of malicious, malignant propaganda having been inculcated that we ourselves are surprised that European and other countries’ visitors are surprised when they discover the real America. I know I have been…
And so now hundreds of thousands will return to their own countries to disabuse their fellows of the false picture which has been painted of our beloved nation.
Hundreds of thousands of our newest “ambassadors”.
An unexpected but glorious benefit from having hosted a sporting fixture which billions worldwide love.
Let the debunking begin 🇺🇸
Trump has got this. The hardest part is dealing with corrupt, idiotic main stream media who spew agitprop 24/7.
Sounds good to me. What better friend than a friend who has been a friend in a time when a friend is needed. Can it be said regarding UK, EU, etc.
Konstantinovka is a burb of the main target (on that side of the Ukraine) which is Kramatorsk and Kramatorsk is now almost completely surrounded.
Once Kramatorsk falls Russia can take Odesa.

With both Hillary Clinton and John Brennan stating that “if Trump can end the Ukraine war he deserves the Nobel Peace Prize ” there is a strong possibility that the war with Russia will not end until Trump is out of office.
Russia gave a large amount of assistance to the US invasion of Afghanistan, making available all the data from their extensive geological and topographical surveys of their region, made during the failed intervention. Armed with accurate maps, especially ones of the numerous Mujahadeen tunnel complexes, and now used by Al-Qaeda, the US forces were able to systematically target and destroy them.
Fast forward to 2026 and the ‘hidden’ Iranian bunkers and underground production lines are repeatedly struck by Allied forces, complexes that just happened to have been built partially using Russian engineers and construction workers, leveraging their Cold War subterranean skill sets. I’m also sure it was just a coincidence that the Chinese copies of Russian AD systems failed spectacularly during Operation UF, whilst their Russian counterparts proved formidable platforms in the Ukraine conflict.
Putin plays a comparatively weak hand well, always ready to advance Russia’s interests. This bias on independent nationalism over collective agreement (the historical irony is rich) poses a danger to the Eurocrat burearistocracy, in a similar way that President Trump’s emphasis on MAGA does, though the latter has far stronger cards to play, explaining Putin’s pragmatic support for 47’s foreign policy agenda.
