During the early days of the pandemic, when Covid tests were hard to find, Donald Trump sent some to Vladimir Putin. This surprising move was confirmed by the Kremlin. The Russian president's spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, said that countries were sharing resources during this challenging time. Russia sent ventilators to the US, and the US sent tests to Russia.

    Woodward, a well-known US journalist, reported that Putin asked Trump to keep it a secret because people might get upset. Woodward also mentioned that Trump and Putin might have talked up to seven times since 2021, even after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Peskov, however, denied these calls ever happened.

    These details come from Woodward's latest book, which focuses on the Biden presidency and other global events. Trump's actions might not change his popularity among his supporters, despite his numerous scandals and legal issues.

    Meanwhile, the Kremlin denied UK claims that Russian intelligence was causing chaos in Europe. They said these allegations were unfounded and not worth attention.

    This story raises questions about international relations and how leaders handle crises. It also shows how secrets can be kept, even in the most challenging times.
