Trump and Cohen's potential contact is under renewed scrutiny after a bombshell BuzzFeed News report said Trump had directed his former "fixer" to lie in testimony.

Rudy Giuliani, President Donald Trump's top attorney, said Monday that Trump did not talk to his former lawyer, Michael Cohen about Cohen's testimony to Congress.

Speaking to the New York Daily News, Giuliani said Trump "never" spoke with Cohen, and he had confirmed that point with ex-lead counsel John Dowd, among other former members of the president’s legal team.

“The president never spoke with Cohen about the congressional testimony," Giuliani told the Daily News in a report published a day after he said he "didn't know" about the matter.

Giuliani added that the president’s legal team had contact with conversed with Cohen’s lawyers, and possibly Cohen himself, head of his September 2017 testimony to the House and Senate intelligence committees.

The day before, Giuliani told CNN host Jake Tapper that he wasn't sure about the matter, and cast doubt on the significance of potential contact, saying "so what?"

"I don’t know if it happened or didn’t happen," Giuliani said Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union." "So what if he talked to him about it?"

Trump's contact with Cohen re-entered the spotlight after a bombshell BuzzFeed News report published Friday said Trump had directed Cohen to lie in his testimony, which Democratic lawmakers pointed to as ground for impeachment, if the report's claims were true.

Giuliani, along with Vice President Mike Pence, waved off the report over the weekend, saying he was "100 percent" sure Trump hadn't directed Cohen to lie.
