MOSCOW (Reuters) -Russian President Vladimir Putin and Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan have spoken by phone, the Kremlin said on Monday, saying that Pashinyan had briefed Putin on his meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump last week.

Trump received Pashinyan and Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev in the White House on Friday where they signed a joint declaration confirming their readiness to move towards a final peace settlement to draw a line under more than three decades of on-off conflict.
