The CIA report denied the kremlin's claims that Ukraine attacked putin's residence.

It was reported by CNN and The New York Times, citing their own sources.

This was in response to Trump's previous statements about his phone conversation with зutin. During the conversation, the russian leader allegedly complained about an attempted attack on his residence, which, according to Trump, caused him to react sharply.
