Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that expertise of former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger accumulated over decades of rich experience and Moscow welcomes his involvement in advising President-elect Donald Trump on how to reconcile Moscow and Washington.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Russia would welcome the involvement of former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger in advising President-elect Donald Trump on how to reconcile Moscow and Washington, but the ultimate decision rests with the US, the Kremlin said Tuesday.

"Of course, if his expertise accumulated over decades of rich experience were in some way in demand, we would welcome that. But the relevance and applicability of this experience is not our business, it is the work of our US colleagues, and we cannot interfere," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.
