According to the press secretary of the President Dmitry Peskov, there was no face-to-face meeting: Chubais and Putin spoke on the phone. “Indeed, there was a telephone conversation. The telephone conversation was not reported, because we do not report most of the President’s telephone conversations during the working day, we simply do not have such an opportunity,” he explained. Peskov also added that Chubais does not have a personal account at presidential administration .
Earlier in December, Chubais said that he had a meeting with the president … The ex-head of the state corporation indicated that the president himself offered him to become a special representative for relations with international organizations.
