“Everything which is published from his authorized Twitter account is perceived by Moscow as his official statement,” said Putin’s press secretary Dmitry Peskov, who added that it was not his place to comment on Trump’s tweets.
Peskov also said that Putin does not use Twitter, Reuters reported.
“Naturally, (Trump’s tweets are) reported to Putin, along with other information about official statements by politicians,” Peskov said.
