Pres. Trump said he spoke with Russian Pres. Vladimir Putin on matters including Venezuela, North Korea and the special counsel's investigation. 'Getting along with Russia, China, and everyone is a good thing, not a bad thing,' Trump tweeted.
President Donald Trump and Russian president Vladimir Putin spoke on the phone for a little over an hour on Friday and discussed the special counsel’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
Trump also told reporters that, during their conversation, Putin said the furor over the probe in Russian election meddling"ended up as a mouse.” The two leaders also discussed a potential nuclear agreement that could include China, tension in Venezuela and North Korea, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters.
“The president’s primary focus throughout the call was about helping the people of Venezuela, making clear that the United States stands with the people of Venezuela and the importance of making sure those individuals are able to get the food, the water and the medical supplies needed,” Sanders said.
