The press secretary of the Russian president Dmitry Peskov said that he can neither confirm nor deny the publications about contacts between Russian leader Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump regarding Ukraine.

Earlier, The New York Post wrote that Trump reported that he discussed the settlement of the conflict in Ukraine by phone with Putin.

„What can be said about this news is that while the administration in Washington is developing its work, many different communications appear. And these communications are carried out through different channels. And of course, against the backdrop of their large number, I personally may not know something, be unaware of something. "Therefore, in this case, I can neither confirm nor deny it," the Kremlin spokesman said, answering a question from TASS whether Putin and Trump had a telephone conversation after the American leader took office.
