Who cares? Can't the President pick up the phone and talk to anyone he wants?
Don't be so naïve.
Being serious. Good thing these liberals weren't so adamant during WW2 or every conversation about Manhattan and any conversation with Stalin and Churchill would have been leaked. We'd all be speaking German.
Roosevelt and Stalin both had interpreters present. Stalin didn't speak English. Also, there was a world war on and the papers knew that was not the sort of thing you would leak.
Putin doesn't speak English either, so the protocol is to have one interpreter each. That's even the case with someone like Angela Merkel, who can speak English.
You have trapped yourself in a lie. Putin is a skilled linguist, as he speaks German amazingly well, and his English is rather grand.
