invitation of US President Barack Obama to Moscow to celebrate the 70th anniversary of Victory in May next year “is not rejected.” Obama’s chief adviser on Russia’s White House staff Celeste Wallander assured in this TASS December 22 evening in a brief interview on Russian-American relations. Invitation “seen,” she said. When a decision is made, it is not clear. Earlier, White House officials, responding to questions on this subject, confined by saying that they have “no announcements today about any trips of the president in Russia.” In Moscow the same day, Russian presidential aide Yury Ushakov said that Obama was invited to the celebration, as the leader of one of the anti-Hitler coalition.
