Kremlin surprised by Trump's Putin cancellation

The Kremlin says it has not been notified of a cancellation of the much-anticipated meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump.

Russian news agencies on Thursday quoted Dmitry Peskov, Putin’s spokesman, as saying that the Kremlin only learnt about the cancellation from Trump’s tweet. He says the Russian delegation is already on its way to the G-20 summit in Argentina.

Peskov said the cancellation means that Putin will have “a couple of more hours” for “useful meetings” with other leaders of the world’s 20 largest economies.

1. Meh... I call BS

I think Putin cancelled on Donnie and he tweeted to make it look good for himself

...and Putin knew he'd play it that way (since Donnie would be too scared to bash Putin for cancelling their date) and now he can play like he's "surprised" ...easy manipulation.
