    T: “Hello my friend, I need your advice.”

    P: “For you my dear friend, I will give it gladly!”

    T: “Should I sell weapons to your enemies?”

    P: “No, it is not a good idea, I strongly advice against that.”

    T: “Thank you for your clear and unbiased answer, that is all I needed to hear”

      I wonder if that was before or after this supposed interaction:

      T: I said to Putin, ‘Don’t do it, Vladimir.’ And I told him things that what I would do. And he said, ‘No way.’ And I said, ‘Way.’ It’s the last time we had the conversation.

      Yes that’s an actual quote from his Musk interview.
