Dear subscribers and guests of the channel! Yesterday, #Russian President Vladimir #Putin, quite formally and without much fanfare, ended an informal CIS summit. The leaders of the participating countries managed to visit the State Russian Museum on Tuesday.

There, #Putin tried to communicate with colleagues in an informal setting. It did not turn out very well, but he did not despair and continued to entertain the guests until the final. Communication with #Lukashenko has become a game of "deceive me" for Putin.

Everything that #Putin asked #Lukashenko yesterday received a positive response. In such a simple way, Lukashenko once again "dotted the i", promising full integration, troops, weapons and joint campaigns against the "enemy", and help everywhere and in everything, BUT later.

Everyone, and first of all #Putin himself, has big doubts about #Lukashenko's promises. The Russian President announced it at an evening meeting with the leadership of the security and military blocs following the summit.

One of #Lukashenko's favorite expressions is "Tomorrow is never", and here, it is difficult to argue with him.
#Putin had a conversation with #Armenian Prime Minister Nikol #Pashinyan.

While lamenting abundantly on the "lawlessness" on the part of #Azerbaijani President Ilham #Aliyev, #Putin promised to look into everything and resolve all issues, BUT later. Scandals on the sidelines of the summit were avoided.

This is the main success and merit of the President of #Russia. Modest results, but nothing can be done. The CIS and the CSTO, apparently, will not fall apart before the New Year, but this is not certain.

#Putin did not change his plans for New Year's Eve - the bunker behind the Ural Mountains, according to the President, is the safest place in #Russia. There, he will celebrate the holiday surrounded by his family and a few relatives.
