Kremlin ready to yield to USA in Venezuela

According to reports from Reuters, the Kremlin stated it is ready to refrain from obstructing the United States in Venezuela if Washington makes concessions regarding Ukraine. The statement mentioned Russia's willingness to view the American presence in Venezuela 'without conflict' in exchange for reduced pressure from the U.S. side on issues related to the Ukrainian conflict. Russian officials noted that such a compromise serves the interests of both countries by enabling a balance in international strategic frameworks.

According to Reuters, talks between the U.S. and Russia on issues related to the Ukrainian conflict are in a phase of seeking solutions, and the Kremlin's new clarification of its position on Latin America has become an unexpected departure from Russia's traditional anti-American stance in this region.
