minus-squareAurenkin@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·7 months ago Newly re-elected New Zealand Prime Minister John Key was talking to a supporter on his mobile phone when another call came in. “I didn’t recognize the number, so I didn’t take it,” Key told a New Zealand television station. Only later did aides tell Key who was trying to reach him: President Obama. https://www.usatoday.com/story/theoval/2014/09/22/obama-john-key-new-zealand-phone-call/16057707/

minus-squareWillySpreadum@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·7 months agojust thinking logistically, I imagine that happened a lot. Anyway I expect a decent number of his calls were made by aides and he just took the phone after they got through to the right person.
