Alastair Campbell used an appearance in Oslo to convey what he portrayed as a message to Vladimir Putin about Donald Trump. The former England football spin doctor made the remarks on Tuesday during the Telenorkonferansen conference. The headline indicates that Campbell argued Trump was effectively on Russia’s side. The short report does not include the full speech, the exact wording of the alleged signal, or a quotation from Putin. It also does not explain whether the comments were made directly to the Russian president or through a broader discussion about the war in Ukraine. Campbell’s own account and any response from Trump or the Kremlin were not included.
