What Peskov said about contacts with Washington

The dictator's spokesman acknowledged the contacts and reported that the Russian side's interaction with the administration of US President Donald Trump is taking place through the “line of individual departments.”

Contacts… do indeed exist and they have intensified recently. But I can't tell you any other details,” Peskov said.
