Meeting between Putin and Zelensky at the G20 summit? Kremlin says it is "impossible"

SIC Notícias12 September 2026 at 19:20

The Kremlin considered it impossible to hold a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the G20 summit. The position was expressed by the Russian presidential spokesperson, Dmitri Peskov.

The spokesperson reiterated the Kremlin's demand that any meeting between the two leaders take place in Moscow, rejecting the possibility of contact during the summit that would be held in Miami.

Previously, the same spokesperson had told the Russian state news agency Tass that the decision on Vladimir Putin's trip to Miami had not yet been made.

Why this matters

This article is relevant for readers following the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as it documents the Kremlin's refusal to participate in bilateral negotiations at an international forum. The requirement that Zelensky travel to Moscow for any meeting maintains diplomatic tension and indicates there are no immediate prospects for direct dialogue between the two leaders.

Legal or illegal? This country's government uses 'confidential' citizen data to decide who is stopped in STOP operations

A 404 Media investigation revealed that U.S. border police teams, designated PITT, analyze confidential financial data from citizens to identify suspected drivers and relay information to local authorities, bypassing the so-called "parallel construction." A case in Montana illustrates the practice: Kyle Olson was stopped after an analyst linked financial patterns to drug trafficking, although police invoked a traffic violation to justify the stop. U.S. legislation, including the Whren v. United States case and the Right to Financial Privacy Act, does not expressly prohibit these operations, but requires respect for constitutional protections. The article also compares this reality with Portugal, where banking secrecy, the Constitution, and laws such as Law 59/2019 establish clear limits on generalized access to financial data for automated surveillance purposes.
