The conversations between the two have revolved around everything from geopolitics and business to personal matters, according to several of the newspaper's unnamed sources in the USA, Russia, and Europe.

The Kremlin's spokesperson, Dmitrij Peskov, denies the allegations about the secret conversations.

It's all untrue, absolutely false information published in the newspaper, says the Kremlin's spokesperson Dmitrij Peskov.

He claims that Putin had a phone conversation with Musk on one occasion before 2022.

It was a factual conversation. They talked about more visionary technology, about technology for the future.

Musk, who has not commented on the allegations, is currently campaigning with Donald Trump in his attempt to become the next President of the USA.
