President Trump has used a phonecall with President Putin to congratulate the Russian leader on scuring another six-year term in office, brushing aside concerns in Washington, Barbara Plett-Usher reports. President trump said he had a very good call with Mr. Putin. He said they would probably be meeting in the not-too-distant future to discuss the arms race between the two countries as well as the situation in Ukraine, Syria and North Korea. He did not, however, raise Russia's apparent role in a recent nerve agent attack on a former spy in Britain, said his spokeswoman Sarah Sanders. This despite the outrage the incident has caused in Europe. Mr. Trump made his remarks shortly after the US imposed sanctions on Moscow for allegedly carrying out malicious cyber attacks and meddling in the 2016 presidential election.
