I cannot really add much to the original answer I gave. I made it clear that the Prime Minister and the White House had made it clear, and the US Ambassador has also commented to this effect, that the comment was never made and was inaccurate.

As I understand it, all parties agree on the importance of the call and what occurred and, as far as the US Ambassador is concerned, the matter is concluded.
