Earlier in the day, the Washington Post, citing sources, claimed that Trump allegedly had a phone talk with Putin on November 7.
"This is the most obvious example of the quality of the information that is now being published, sometimes even in fairly reputable outlets. This is completely untrue. This is pure fiction. This is just false information," Peskov told reporters, answering a relevant question.
There are no concrete plans for any talks between Putin and Trump as of yet, the spokesman clarified.
Moreover, no preparations are underway for Vladimir Putin's contacts with Western leaders, Moscow has not received any signals for this yet, Peskov added.
In an interview with the ARD broadcaster released on Sunday, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has said that the "right time" for a phone conversation with Putin would come soon.
"There are no preparations underway right now, we have not received any signals," Peskov told reporters when asked whether preparations are underway for Putin’s negotiations with Scholz.
