Kremlin says Putin-Zelensky meeting at G20 is impossible

Observador12 September 2026 at 20:00

The Kremlin categorically rejected the possibility of a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during the G20 summit to be held in December in Miami.

Moscow closed the door on the scenario opened by President Zelensky, considering any meeting between the two leaders within the framework of the international forum impossible.

Russian authorities have not yet confirmed whether Putin will effectively travel to Miami to participate in the G20 summit, leaving uncertainty about his presence at the event.

The Kremlin's position comes after Zelensky publicly suggested the possibility of a bilateral meeting with Putin during the G20 meeting.

Why this matters

This article is relevant for readers because it documents the persistent diplomatic impasse between Russia and Ukraine, indicating that the chances of an internationally mediated peace agreement remain distant. The uncertainty about Putin's presence at the G20 also affects expectations regarding international diplomatic engagement with Russia.
