US President Donald Trump expressed his desire to see Vladimir Putin at the upcoming G20 summit, scheduled for December 14-15, 2026, in Miami.
Trump's Statement
In his statement, Trump remarked: "I would certainly love to see that guy participate in the G20 summit. I don't know if he will come." These words reflect the US President's openness to dialogue with the Russian leader, despite the strained relations between the two countries.
Invitation for Putin
According to reports, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that Washington has extended an invitation to Putin to attend the summit. This could be an important step towards restoring dialogue between the US and Russia, especially in the context of global challenges that require joint efforts.
Putin's Plans
Despite the invitation, media reports suggest that Putin may skip the event. Earlier, Volodymyr Zelensky proposed holding a trilateral meeting between Ukraine, the US, and Russia during the summit, indicating a desire for peaceful conflict resolution. However, Putin's participation remains uncertain.
