The White House disputed a CNN report that said Biden's call with Ukraine's president had not gone well.
Emily Horne, spokesperson for the National Security Council, later told CNN:"Anonymous sources are 'leaking' falsehoods.". He has said this publicly and we have been warning about this for months. Reports of anything more or different than that are completely false," Horne said.
The Ukrainian government likewise disputed CNN's report. Zelensky's spokesperson, Sergii Nykyforov, addressed the issue in a statement"Some reports regarding the content of the talks between Presidents Volodymyr Zelensky and Joe Biden have appeared on social media, citing the alleged 'senior Ukrainian official'. These messages are completely false," Nykyforov said.
The White House released a brief readout of the call on Thursday. This is standard practice for the president's calls with foreign leaders and is not a transcript. President Joe Biden speaks during the U.S. Conference of Mayors 90th Annual Winter Meeting in Washington, DC, on January 21, 2022. House Republicans are calling for Biden to release the transcript of his call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
