MOSCOW, Nov 11 (AFP): The Kremlin on Monday denied a US media report that Russian President Vladimir Putin and US president-elect Donald Trump had spoken on the phone last week about the Ukraine conflict.
The Washington Post reported Sunday that Trump talked by phone on Thursday with Putin, telling him not to inflame the conflict. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists that the Washington Post report was "simply false information", denying any phone call took place.
The Post report said that Trump in the call reminded Putin of Washington's sizeable military foothold in Europe. Several people speaking to the US paper said Trump had expressed the desire for more conversations on "the resolution of Ukraine's war soon".
