On 2 February 2017, various news outlets reported that a (presumably) routine recording of a January 2017 phone call between U.S. president Donald Trump and Russian president Vladimir Putin was not made because the White House had shut off the recording equipment during that call: Ilan Berman asserted there was no readout of the Trump-Putin call because the White House turned off recording in a 1 February 2017 tweet: When asked whether the recording of such phone calls was required under record retention laws, Berman responded that he did not believe so: However, Berman also added that he didn't know for a fact that the call hadn't been recorded on the U.S. side, only that a recording didn't seem to exist: A request for comment from the White House had not been responded to by publication time.
