Kremlin to send Dmitriev and Lantratova to meeting with Melania Trump

Peskov

Russian leader’s special envoy Kirill Dmitriev and human rights commissioner Yana Lantratova will travel to a meeting with US First Lady Melania Trump on Russia’s behalf.

Russian dictator Vladimir Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov announced this, as quoted by Russian media, Censor.NET reports.

"We hope Kirill Dmitriev will be there. But as far as I understand, Yana Lantratova will be leading the delegation, if she manages to get there in time," Peskov said.

He added, however, that not all members of Lantratova’s team have visas.

"That is always a problem these days. If all the logistics ‘come together’, as they say, Yana Lantratova and Kirill Dmitriev will be there," the Kremlin spokesman said.

Background
