Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov also said that Trump raised the issue of Ukrainian sailors detained by the Russians in the Kerch Strait at the meeting."This topic was touched upon, President Trump raised it. Vladimir Putin provided him with the necessary clarifications," the Kremlin spokesman said at the time, without giving further details.

Peskov also informed after the meeting that an official invitation would be sent to the White House in the coming days for Trump to attend the parade on Red Square on May 9, 2020, which was to be held on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II.

However, Trump did not meet Putin in person again. The reasons included the COVID-19 pandemic, which reached its peak in the spring of 2020, and the campaign that Trump had to focus on before the presidential election in the United States in the fall of 2020. He lost to Democrat Biden and left the position of head of the White House for the next four years.
