The meeting between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky will never materialize, according to the position expressed by Russia through its spokesperson.

The Kremlin communicated this decision during an intervention in New Delhi, where preparations for the G20 summit are underway.

The event is scheduled for December, in the United States, and would have brought the two leaders together in a context of continued tension between Russia and Ukraine.
