Russia’s London embassy trolls Theresa May over ‘beware Putin’ remarks
Addressing a Republican ‘retreat’ in Philadelphia, May said: “When it comes to Russia, as so often, it is wise to turn to the example of President Reagan who, during negotiations with his opposite number Mikhail Gorbachev, used to abide by the adage ‘trust but verify.’
“With President Putin, my advice is to ‘engage but beware.’
“There is nothing inevitable about conflict between Russia and the West. And nothing unavoidable about retreating to the days of the Cold War. But we should engage with Russia from a position of strength.”

Trump to speak with Putin, Merkel and Abe in day of calls
Before he speaks with Putin, Trump will hold calls with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, a key ally in Asia, and Merkel.
But there is some excitement in Russia about a possible detente between Washington and Moscow under the Trump administration.
Later Saturday, he will speak with French President François Hollande and Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull. Pence is not listed as joining any of those calls.
