As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, former U.S. president Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk held a conversation on Monday evening, which was broadcast on social networks. Trump was found to have lied at least 20 times.

In addition, Trump announced his intention to "get along" with russia again after taking office as the head of the White House.

Meanwhile, former U.S. president Donald Trump has agreed to a debate with Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris on ABC on September 10.
