FM Lavrov adds to Kremlin spox denial that #Russia told Trump it was pulling military personnel out of #Venezuela. But I don't think problem is with Trump's aides. twitter.com/andrewsweiss/s…

Czech officials protest proposed amendment to Russian law that terms 1968 Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia an effort to put down "an attempted coup." #Russia could avoid some problems with neighbors if it did not keep trying to whitewash USSR's misdeeds.

Kremlin spox today denies that #Russia informed @realDonaldTrump of removal of its personnel from #Venezuela or had been in touch with him at all on subject, adding that Russian military advisors continue to work there. twitter.com/realDonaldTrum…

This has to be fake. Queen would not be that rude to her guest, even if it is Trump. But great idea! twitter.com/TrueFactsState…

Well, if you measure respect for UK by keeping Churchill bust in Oval Office instead of how @POTUS treats our British ally, I suppose you're right. 🙄 twitter.com/michaelh613/st…

No room for @realDonaldTrump to stay at Buckingham Palace? Reportedly due to ongoing renovation work. Never mind that Buckingham Palace has 52 “Royal and guest bedrooms.” twitter.com/griffwitte/sta…

Perhaps Marine One arrived two minutes early? Marine One and Air Force One pilots are famous for, if schedule says land or roll to stop on tarmac at, say 10:33, they land or roll to stop on tarmac precisely at 10:33.

Great that the gates of @TheBankova, Ukraine’s Presidential Adminiatration, are open to the public. Makes staking out the entrances and people watching easier. Moments ago, new Chargé d’Affaires for @USEmbassyKyiv, Kristina Kvien, walked in for a meeting with Zelenskiy’s team. pic.twitter.com/Jci2oMARQd

Special relationship between US and UK is important. I saw it first-hand during 3 years at US Embassy London in early 1990s. But @realDonaldTrump has done more damage to that relationship than any other president in past 50 years. twitter.com/AmbJohnBolton/…

Kremlin spox wishes Michael Calvey could attend St Petersburg Int'l Economic Forum. Only problem: Calvey, who has invested in #Russia for 25 years, sits under house arrest in Moscow on what seem dubious charges. Hardly an encouraging sign for potential investors in Russia.

True, Red Army had been fighting since 1941 and faced many more German divisions than allies in West. But that in no way diminishes the heroism or achievements of those who parachuted in or waded ashore at Normandy on June 6, 1944. twitter.com/prof4russia/st…

Probably true. From my 3 years posted in London, I came to the conclusion that the British are generally pretty sensible people ... with the occasional lapse.
