Trump Called Putin: ‘Trump spoke to Putin on the phone’, Russia said – it is completely false

The Kremlin on Monday categorically rejected reports about an alleged telephone conversation between US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, calling such claims “fiction”. “Reports of a Putin-Trump phone conversation are false. There was no call between the two. Putin currently has no specific plans to speak to Trump,” the Kremlin said in a statement. The Washington Post and Reuters had reported that the two top leaders had a phone conversation on Thursday.  

Many newspapers have given information about the conversation between Trump and Putin.

The Washington Post had reported that Trump had called Russian President Putin from his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida on Thursday, just days after his landslide electoral victory over Democratic rival Kamala Harris in the recently concluded US presidential elections. The report further claimed that during the conversation, the Russian President was advised by Trump not to escalate the war in Ukraine. During the call, Trump also reminded Putin of Washington’s large military presence in Europe.

So did the conversation take place between Putin and Trump?

Let us tell you that during his election campaign, Trump had promised to immediately resolve the long war going on between Russia and Ukraine but did not say how he was planning to do so. According to the American newspaper, Trump privately said that he would support a deal where Russia would keep some liberated territories and during a phone conversation with Putin, he briefly touched upon the issue of the territories. The Washington Post said that the Ukrainian government was informed about the call and did not object to it as Kyiv officials understood that Trump would discuss the matter with Putin.
