Russia and the United States are in talks about potential cooperation in the Arctic and Alaska, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Friday.
"We are discussing, by the way, with our American partners the potential for collaboration in this area, not just within our Arctic zone, but also in Alaska," Putin said during a meeting with Russian nuclear industry workers.

Visit to Alaska Was Timely and Very Useful - Putin
Russian President added he expects the first steps taken by Russia and the United States to be the beginning of a full-scale restoration of relations between the countries.
"I very much hope that the first steps that have been taken [by Russia and the US] are only the beginning of a full-scale restoration of our relations," Putin said during a meeting with employees of Russian nuclear industry enterprises.
The full restoration of relations between Russia and the US depends primarily on Western partners, Putin added.
"It does not depend on us, it depends primarily on our Western partners in the broad sense again, because the United States is also bound by certain obligations within various alliances, including the North Atlantic bloc," Putin said.
Putin added that he expects that the pace of work between Moscow and Washington in restoring relations will continue.
