The Kremlin has denied that a phone call took place between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, claiming an article reporting it "does not correspond at all to reality".
Over the weekend, the Washington Post reported that the US president-elect had already spoken to Putin.
The article claimed Trump had urged the Russian leader not to further escalate the war in Ukraine.
During his election campaign, Trump declined to specify how he would end the war between Russia and Ukraine in a day – but it could involve imposing a deal on both sides.
