The Kremlin does not specify details about the KHL and NHL match

Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov stated that there are no concrete plans regarding the organization of a match between KHL and NHL players. This was reported by 'Glavkom'.

After the media began to criticize this initiative, Peskov was asked to comment on it.

“Listen, this idea was expressed only hypothetically. There are no concrete details here. How can you criticize something that does not exist? There will always be people who will criticize. Let them do it, we will not interfere with them,” said Peskov.

We remind that Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin discussed the possibility of hockey matches between players from the USA and Russia during a phone call.

For its part, Moscow reported that Trump supports Putin's idea of organizing matches between NHL and KHL players in the USA and Russia, and also agreed to continue discussing issues that were considered during the conversation, including the war in Ukraine.

The White House's report on this conversation did not mention anything about hockey issues, and the NHL learned about the idea only after it took place.

“We just found out about the conversation between President Trump and President Putin. Clearly, we were not involved in this discussion, so it is inappropriate to comment on it at this moment,” the NHL stated.

As a result, information appeared in the press that Francesco Totti, the world champion in football, arrived in Russia and became a special guest at an event organized by a Russian bookmaker.

The footballer expressed his joy over the opportunity to be in Russia, where he was shown great respect and enjoyment. Totti also mentioned his farewell match in 2017, which was unforgettable for him, and noted that he has had many changes in his life in recent years.
