The Kremlin said a highly-anticipated phone call between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump will take place between 1300 GMT and 1500 GMT on Tuesday and that the pair will discuss Ukraine and the “normalisation” of US-Russian ties.
“It will indeed take place from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm Moscow time,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said. “There is a large number of issues from the normalisation of our relations and the Ukrainian issue, all of which the two presidents will discuss.”
