Argentina’s Macri said to deny talking business with Trump
Reporter Will Carless writes on Twitter that the spokesperson for Argentine President Mauricio Macri is denying that Donald Trump used a congratulatory phone call to try to push forward a business deal, a possible damning conflict of interest.
“They didn’t talk about the (Trump) tower at all. It’s absolutely untrue,” Carless says on Twitter, quoting the Argentine president’s residence Casa Rosada.
