Russia has 'no expectation' of better U.S. ties after Bolton ouster

Russia said Wednesday it has "no expectation" of any improvement in relations with Washington after the dismissal of Donald Trump's national security advisor John Bolton, Rappler reported.

"We have observed several times in the past that changes in the US administration bring no improvement. That's why we have no expectation," deputy foreign minister Sergei Ryabkov told the Novosti news agency.

"We judge on acts not declarations or intentions. When we see progress, then we can say that something has changed."
