The Russian President wants Washington saw in Russia a great power.
The main objective of the foreign policy of Russian President Vladimir Putin is the fact that Washington treats Russia as a superpower, said the Director of national intelligence James Clapper.
“Vladimir Putin sees Russia as a great country, a great power. Their main goal is to ensure that the US treated Russia as a great power”, — he said at a conference in new York Council on international Affairs.
Clapper also described the bilateral relations as “very bad,” noting that the two countries had a lot of disagreements, but they continue to maintain contact.
