Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that the Russian President took time Thursday to speak to John, quoting Putin as saying, “I know that these phone pranksters fooled you. Please don’t be angry with them.”
Putin also said if their schedules permit, he would be willing to meet him. John recently criticized comments by Putin suggesting that gay people prey on children.
