President Putin has come to the defense of President Trump in light of damaging stories that Trump withheld details of their meetings together.

“It was mostly just me issuing instructions, that’s all.”

Putin says that Trump is correct when he claims he is not trying to hide what he said during the encounters.

“This is true, as I require respectful silence from my subordinates when I am telling them what to do.”

Putin added that there is no secrecy going on, and what he said should be apparent to anyone.

“To understand what I commanded, simply pay attention to what your President does and doesn’t do.”
