MOSCOW — As the drama over Attorney General Jeff Sessions plays out in Washington, the Kremlin is watching with a mixture of frustration and regret how the uproar is blocking progress on pressing issues on the U.S.-Russian agenda.
Despite the dashed hopes for a quick thaw, however, Moscow is voicing its readiness to wait as long as it takes.

"Similarly, there has been no movement forward regarding cooperation in the fight against terrorism, which causes regret," he said.

"Without waiting for these contacts to start Cheap Dallas Cowboys Hoodies , Russia has been consistently contributing to the fight against terrorism and scoring results," Peskov said, pointing to the Russian military's role in driving the Islamic State group from the historic Syrian town of Palmyra.
