The Russian and US finance ministries see a basis for further developing

The Russian and US finance ministries see a basis for further developing bilateral relations, Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov told Vesti.

"We met with Mr. [US Treasury Secretary Scott — TASS] Bessent for the first time. It was a meeting on the sidelines of the G20. We got to know each other, which is a positive development. We agreed that there is a basis for developing our financial relations. Clearly, this is not easy right now, given that there are certain tensions between our countries. As geopolitical tensions are resolved, I am confident that we will also develop our financial ties," he said.

According to Siluanov, economic ties between Russia and the United States could help resolve political issues, and the two countries should continue their dialogue.
