Perry to visit Moscow: Russian media

Source: The Hill

U.S. Energy Secretary Rick Perry is scheduled to visit Moscow this month, Russian media reported on Sunday, according to Reuters.

Perry, who would be the most senior U.S. official to visit Russia since President Trump's summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, is slated to visit between Sept. 11-13, the news service reported.

He will reportedly meet with his Russian counterpart Alexander Novak to discuss global oil markets, the reimposed sanctions on Iran by the U.S. and possible restrictions against Russia, according to Russian newspaper Kommersant.

They will also reportedly discuss the Nord Stream 2 pipeline project that would carry gas from Russia to Germany across the Baltic Sea. Trump has spoken out strongly against the project.

As long as Gov perfect hair takes his smart glasses he will be just fine. Here in Texas we survived 15 years of torture under this clown. But he got his super glasses after he left so now he is smarter than a box of hammers—-maybe. What a putz.

Don't hire (or accept as a gift ) two hookers to piss on a bed once slept in by a former US President.

No matter how deeply and pathologically your feelings of comparative inadequacy run.
