Trump did call Putin, but they did not talk about the Ukraine. The Washington Post either made this up, or, much less plausibly, Trump is giving out fake leaks.
The first Trump administration was leaky as a thug nigga on New Year’s Eve because he staffed his entire office with people who hated him. We can only assume he’s doing the same thing this time around, based on everything we’ve heard.
RT:
US President-elect Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin did not have a phone conversation about the Ukraine conflict, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said.
The Washington Post claimed on Sunday that Trump called Putin after winning his second, albeit non-consecutive term as US president to discuss his vision regarding how the Ukrainian crisis could be deflated. Peskov said on Monday that the article was a “vivid example of the quality of information published by even some respectable outlets.”
“This absolutely does not correspond to reality. This is pure fiction. This information is simply false,” he told the press.
Kiev previously denied the claim made by the Washington Post in its piece that the Ukrainian government was informed about the phone call beforehand and gave its consent to the US-Russian engagement.
“Reports that the Ukrainian side was informed in advance of the alleged call are false,” the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman told Reuters on Sunday.
Not only did the Post not update their article to include the fact that Russia denied their reporting, they also didn’t include the fact that their ally the Ukraine denied it.
With Trump in office, the media is ramping up for a new golden age of fake news. Off the bat, they are going to be trying to keep the war in the Ukraine going by printing all sorts of nonsense.
Donald Trump Jr., who isn’t in the administration and never really seems to even know what the hell is going on, has been trolling the Ukraine on Twitter.

Meanwhile, Zelensky appeared on some morning show and dropped an f-bomb while protesting Russia for trying to… commit a genocide or whatever.

At this point, it’s really going to be a hard sell to claim that Russia invaded the Ukraine just because they wanted to murder people. It’s always been so totally retarded to make this claim, when anyone can look up Putin’s demands before the invasion, after the invasion, and at the Ankara peace talks. But they can’t tell the truth, because “defending the right of the Ukraine to occupy a former Soviet territory that is entirely populated by Russians” doesn’t really fit with “fighting for freedom.”
A serious adult conversation about the Ukraine’s reason for insisting on endless war is going to result in a lot of “yeah but what about Kosovo tho?” and “is the border integrity of a former Soviet state really worth sacrificing the lives of a million men over? And why should America be paying for it? What does this even have to do with anything?”
Close Trump confidant Lindsey Graham once dropped the “freedom and democracy” horseshit and said outright that the actual purpose of the war was securing American access to the resources in the disputed territories.

That’s not even the whole story, as it really has to do with the US-Jewish agenda for global dominance more than anything else. But “we’re sending the Ukrainians to die so we can access the natural resources” is a lot closer to the truth than “Russia is committing a genocide and we’re fighting for freedoms.”
