Kremlin Releases New Footage of Putin’s 2001 Visit to Bush in Texas

The Kremlin has released new footage of President Vladimir Putin's visit to Texas in Nov. 13-15, 2001.

He met with then-U.S. President George W. Bush for a three-day summit and visited Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas.

The two leaders discussed denuclearization as well as plans for Russia to become more aligned with Western economies.

"During the summit, President Bush said that their personal friendship and contribution to the development of Russian-American relations would live longer than their terms in office," the Kremlin said at the time.

A Message from The Moscow Times:

Dear readers,

We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."

These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.

By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
