February 18, Fineko/abc.az. Before the August summit in Anchorage, the Russian Security Council prepared a plan for the "greatest deal" with U.S. President Donald Trump. The document proposed lifting all sanctions in exchange for large-scale economic agreements, the total estimate of which tentatively reaches $12 trillion.

ABC.AZ informs that British magazine The Economist writes about this.

The plan was supposed to give American companies the right to return assets transferred to local management in Russia without a buyback option, which is estimated at approx. $60 billion.

In addition, the document described the prospects for participation of American investors in large projects to develop the natural resources of the Arctic and the Far North, which could bring significant financial benefits to all parties.
