Putin 7 times talked with Trump phone: in the Kremlin reacted
Before that, in a comment to The New York Times, Peskov also denied this information. "This is a typical misinformation in the context of the election political campaign," Peskov said. At the same time, The Washington Post, citing Bob Woodward Book "War", reported that US presidential candidate Donald Trump has at least once spent a telephone conversation with Vladimir Putin since early 2024.
The book states that at the beginning of 2024, Trump ordered the assistant to leave his office at Mar-A-Sagan so that he could have a private telephone conversation with the President of the Russian Federation. What the parties to say in the book did not specify, but in its text it is stated that the unnamed assistant Trump argued that the US expatriate could talk to Putin at least seven times since his presidential powers expired in 2021.
