But they did it not with an official call, but «through acquaintances», as a high-ranking interlocutor told the publication.
Earlier it was reported that the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, Dmytro Peskov, said that he did not know whether the leader would congratulate Donald Trump on his victory in the presidential elections.
We will remind that during his speech to voters, Donald Trump assured that he plans to stop all wars in the world.
As reported, the US people supported the candidacy of Donald Trump for the post of President by a majority of votes.
French President Emmanuel Macron has already congratulated Donald Trump on his victory in the presidential elections.

It will be recalled that on Sunday, July 22, US President Joe Biden announced that he is abandoning his intention to run again for the position of head of state. He noted that he intended to seek re-election, but believes that it is in the interests of the Democratic Party and the country that he resign.
Joe Biden will serve as president of the United States until the end of his term, and will later address the nation and «describe his decision in more detail.»
It was also reported that after his recovery, US President Joe Biden plans to campaign «very aggressively» with Vice President Kamala Harris.
The US presidential candidate from the Republican Party, Donald Trump, believes that it will be easier for him to win the election of Kamala Harris than Joe Biden.
Donald Trump agreed to a debate with Vice President Kamala Harris and said that he is ready to meet with her more than once.
On September 10, a debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump took place in the USA. According to the results of a poll conducted by CNN, 63% of registered voters believe that Kamala Harris made a stronger impression at the debate than Donald Trump.
