Telephone conversations between the presidents of Russia and the United States usually take place within 1-2 weeks after the inauguration of the American leader. Russian TASS writes about this, presenting the chronology of previous years:
▪ 6 days from Biden's inauguration in 2021 to the conversation with Putin.
▪ 6 days: Medvedev-Obama, 2009
▪ 8 days: Putin-Trump, 2017
▪ 11 days: Putin-Bush Jr., 2001
▪ 12 days: Putin-Bush Jr., 2005
According to TASS, in 2013, Putin had a telephone conversation with Obama 40 days after the inauguration of the second term, but they had communicated before.
