How do countries communicate with each other securely? For instance say the President needs to reach Putin directly asap, how does he do it? I know WhatsApp is secured end to end so that could be an option lol. Do they have a direct fiber optic link with each other to the Presidential offices?

I actually worked on a project setting up secure comms between countries. I won’t go into much detail here (obviously) but the data is encrypted and then sent over direct-line pipes. The telcos in both countries work to setup dedicated fiber strings for the comms. It’s very very expensive, but also very very secure.

That said, there’s still satellite comms that could be used. Though that gets us into ASAT territory and I have celebratory drinking to do, so you can Google that one yourself.
