The ongoing talks in Riyadh may provide clarity on a possible meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart Donald Trump, but there is still no agreement on this question, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said at a briefing, APA reports citing TASS.
"Little is still known about this matter, perhaps it will become apparent following the results of today's discussions, but we will learn about it later, at the conclusion of this dialogue," the Kremlin spokesman said.
The Russian and US delegations are holding talks in Riyadh on February 18.
The organization of a possible meeting between Putin and Trump was one of the topics of the leaders' phone conversation held on February 12. Trump has repeatedly stated that he wanted to meet with Putin. He spoke about it both during the election campaign in the fall of 2024 and immediately after his inauguration on January 20, 2025. After talking to the Russian president, the US leader named Riyadh as a possible venue for the meeting. Putin and Trump last met in person at the G20 summit in Osaka in June 2019.
