 KENNEBUNKPORT, Maine (AP) - President Bush's summertime meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Bush family's oceanfront estate is about lobsters, legacies and a break from increasing tensions.
Relations between Washington and Moscow are strong, but on the skids, and both Bush and Putin want to massage those relations before leaving office.
"It's not a secret the amount of disagreements is rising," Dmitry Peskov, a spokesman for Putin, said Friday. "Sometimes it's inevitable. It's not a sign of profound crisis in our bilateral relationship."
