New Delhi: India on Thursday rejected claims made by the US President Donald Trump of having a telephonic conversation with Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Trump on Wednesday had claimed that, during a telephonic conversation, PM Modi has "assured" him that India won't be buying oil from Russia.
When asked whether there was a conversation between PM Modi and the US President, Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal responded during a weekly media briefing: "Regarding the comment from the US on energy issue, we have already issued a statement, which you can refer to. As for the telephonic conversation, I can say that there has been no discussion between the Prime Minister and President Trump".
