I'm not going to give advice to President Trump...I think it's always good to have discussions with leaders, especially when there are differences. I stopped communicating with him (putin - ed.) after Bucha, after the war crimes, because at that time we could not get anything from him. Now there is a big change, there is a new US administration, a new context, a new reason to communicate with Putin
