Former US President Donald Trump did not reveal all the details of his conversations with Russian President Vladimir Putin during his term as head of state.
About this newspaper writes Politico.
According to the publication, there are at least ten conversations between the leaders over the past four years.
"Understanding what they talked about among themselves could help clarify whether Trump ever disclosed classified information or made any agreements with the Russian leader that could catch the new administration by surprise," writes Politico.
The newspaper notes that now that the White House is headed by Joe Biden, "he can see everything himself." According to a former member of the Trump administration, Biden and his team "do not need our permission to see these records."
According to one of the former members of the US National Security Council, who is currently close to Biden's team, "finding out what Trump said to Putin is considered a national security priority."
The publication indicates that during his presidency, Trump exercised special caution during personal conversations with foreign leaders in order to "avoid leaks."
It is noted that after Trump's telephone conversations with Putin, "messages about the content were often first published by the Kremlin or by Trump on Twitter." "And although the telephone conversations were not recorded, the assistants
usually listened to conversations and took notes," writes Politico.
However, Trump's former adviser, for his part, said that the former US president "rarely said anything to the Russian leader that he would not have publicly stated before."
