Dmitriev drew attention to the special date of the meeting between Putin and Trump

The date on which the summit of Russian President Vladimir Putin and American leader Donald Trump in Alaska is scheduled coincides with the feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in a new style. Kirill Dmitriev, Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation for Investment and Economic cooperation with Foreign countries and head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), drew attention to this on August 9.

"The Putin-Trump summit on August 15 falls on the Assumption (Ascension in Catholicism), a day dedicated to the peaceful "repose" of Mary. The Orthodox Church in Alaska has Russian roots. Whatever your faith, this holiday is aimed at mercy and reconciliation — choose dialogue, choose peace," Dmitriev wrote on his page on the social network X (ex. Twitter).
