administration can do anything to restore the relations the second point that mr medvedev is making is that washington has begun a fully fledged trade war against russia and finally point number three he is saying that the donald trump administration has shown complete impotence and simply lost in the way it has been dealing with a congress simply lost to the u.s. establishment when the u.s. congress initially approved a new round of sanctions even without the signature by donald trump moscow already head back we know that more than seven hundred fifty american diplomats will have to leave moscow and also in retaliation to similar measures by the u.s. government american diplomatic property in moscow has been seized but perhaps new measures could still be following and that warning has already been received you can read through the latest statement by the russian foreign ministry but if you look at the effects of all that i guess it is fair to say even in a historic perspective when donald trump replaced barak obama in the white house the u.s. russia relations never really got off that

i'm no fan of prime minister medvedev. it pointed out correctly medvedev pointed out that. trump has essentially had executive particularly foreign policy the primary prerogative of the us presidency usurped by him and then he was weak to sign this bill now that being said he was correct however many russian liberal opposition pointed out made bit of himself is hardly to one to comment about this he played it being president for six years made several disastrous mistakes when he was actually granted real power including trying to appease the west by libya by not vetoing the security council resolution that the u.s. used to destroy a libya russia and china both abstained several other disastrous mistakes attempting to appease the west putin decided he needed to come back and. seemingly willingly step down it did not run again himself abrogating to another weakness the guys we're looking at really important i want to talk about north korea here. one of the things your viewers to go to. you tube page and there is the debate. unanimous voting no new sanctions here i would like

end of the line at least judging from the latest statements by the russian prime minister dmitri medvedev he made three points in his latest facebook post that see it all first of all he's saying that there are no more hopes that the new us administration new u.s. administration sorry can do something to restore those relations between moscow and washington to dimitri medvedev is saying that the u.s. is starting a fully fledged trade war with russia and his final third point is that the donald trump and ministration has shown complete impotence and simply lost to the entirety of the u.s. establishment so words come from the establishment isn't just rhetoric though is it tell us about the actual physical countermeasures that have been employed by russia what when this new world of sanctions was initially approved by the congress even before getting that donald trump signature moscow already hit back we know that more than seven hundred fifty u.s. diplomats will have to leave moscow and response to similar actions by the u.s. right now to diplomatic compounds. u.s. will have to give that up

prime minister medvedev posting on facebook, "the u.s. signing of the package of new sanctions against russia will have a few consequences. first, it ends hopes for improving our relations with new u.s. administration. second, it is a declaration of a full-fledged economic war on russia. third, the trump administration has shown its total weakness by handing over executive power to congress in the most humiliating way." for more let's go to moscow and bring in cnn's oren liebermann. those are fighting words there. there were expectations under trump that there could be an improvement of u.s./russian relations, but this seems to be the end of that. >> reporter: as the foreign ministry statement makes clear and as we've heard from other russian lawmakers, those expectations that trump could improve u.s./russia relations are effectively dead. we've heard a number of lawmakers here and officials accuse the u.s. of starting a trade war and not helping to improve the relationses. that's how russia sees this. it's important to note that a number

line here at least judging by the three points that were made by the russian prime minister dmitri medvedev first there is no hope for any improvement of our relations with the new american administration second a total trade war has been declared on russia the trumpet ministration has demonstrated complete impotence of all executive power to congress in the most humiliating way this changes the political balance of power in the us what does that mean for them the american establishment has definitively beaten trump when the u.s. congress initially approved a new round of sanctions even without the signature by donald trump moscow already head back we know that more than seven hundred fifty american diplomats will have to leave moscow and also in retaliation to similar measures by the u.s. government american diplomatic property in moscow has been seized but perhaps new measures could still be following and that warning has already been received you can read through the latest statement by the russian foreign ministry but if you look at the effects of all that i guess it is fair to say even

dmitry medvedev said the measures, which were approved reluctantly by donald trump, demonstrated theete impotence of the president. unusually, mr trump signed the law behind closed doors, and then described it as "significa ntly flawed." our north america correspondent, peter bowes, reports. the sanctions are in retaliation for russia's alleged role in last year's election. it is also punishment for the annexation of crimea in 2014. it will limit the amount people can invest in russian energy projects, making it more difficult for us companies to do business with russia. it also imposes sanctions on iran and north korea. congress overwhelmingly passed the move and sent it to the desk of donald trump. he sat on it for a few days before relu cta ntly a nd he sat on it for a few days before reluctantly and behind closed doors signing it into law. he later accused congress of overstepping its constitutional authority because the law handcuffs him from easing the penalties on russia. he said it was deeply flawed. the president favours tough measures to deter and punish bad behaviour of ir

from prime minister dmitry medvedev. he said the trump administration demonstrated complete impotence in the most humiliating manner, transferring executive powers to congress. a very different tone, and yet still the prevailing message from russia is that there will be no more retaliations diplomatically against the u.s. for now, though they have left the option open. >> and i wanted to talk about that. because of course russia's president vladimir putin as you point out has already cut u.s. diplomatic staff, or ordered for it to be cut in response to the eminent sanctions. what more retaliation might we see? maybe not now, but later further down the track? >> well, putin certainly left open the possibility. in his most recent statement about the sanctions bill, and at that point was just a bill. he talked about all the areas that russia and the u.s. cooperate. perhaps that was a veiled threat into all the other options he has for retaliation. he talked about cooperation on syria, on north korea, as well as in the space

earlier the russian prime minister, dmitry medvedev, said the measures demonstrated the complete impotences, the war of twitter, it is entering a rather dangerous phase isn't it? when you look at donald trump, former ceo of a company, he thinks he is taking the highest office in the land but because he is not experienced politics or in the machinations of american democracy, he is having to put up with congress. he ran as an outsider, which means he feels a little outside the republican establishment, and a little outside of party politics. that is one thing that he can turn to his advantage when things go wrong, like health care, you can blame congress. when it comes to something like this, where congress have drawn up a bill which constrains his ability to lift sanctions, he feels congress is now shackling him and impeding his ability to make deals with russia. so here we are, in a situation where he is having a go at congress, and if you want the old scottish term, almost giving congress a bit of a kicking. and instead, he wants a new relationship with russia, the gulf between the polit

origine what's most giving saying well the russian prime minister dmitry medvedev has taken to facebook another. of world leader the likes using social media to wish you a very long been strongly worded statement i'll just go through some of the main points. he says that that the sanctions bill evans hope of improving relations with the new trump administration. he says it amounts to a fully fledged economic warned russia and says the trump administration has shown weakness relations are going to be extremely tense he says. sanctions a meaningless but overall we will cope and of course jane this comes up a few days off to russia showed what retaliation might look like. by announcing that would come out at u. s. diplomatic stuff in the country so seven hundred fifty five at some all russian locals losing that positions so moscow not happy donald trump isn't happy. only though why not what he as you say said it was extremely flawed in many ways he felt button holed and pressured into signing this bill because lee wordes that he has a see ya in a businessman. knows how to make deals better

dmitry medvedev also claimed the trump administration had shown its "total weakness" by handing overting way." 0ur correspondent, peter bowes, joins us from los angeles. it certainly makes president trump's relationship with russia more complicated. this is a measure he does not believe in. it was passed by congress. he signed it into law, he said, because of the will of the people. that was the way congress voted. he also said he did it for national unity. he made the point he did not believe in key elements of this particular law, essentially it ta kes this particular law, essentially it takes away his executive power to renegotiate sanctions in the future. the power in that respect still remains with congress. they would have to be consulted for the sanctions to change. president trump says he is the best person to work with to make business with other countries. it shows how far adrift he is from his party in congress and how little they trust him on russia. yes. there is clearly a large gap here exposed by this bill. he sat on it for several days. it was sent to his desk. this i
