Putin to be glad to meet with Trump at G20, but US has not initiated meeting - Peskov
Moscow, May 21 (Sputnik/UNI) Russian President Vladimir Putin will be glad to hold a meeting with his US counterpart Donald Trump on the sidelines of the G20 summit in Japan, but there are no actions on the part of the United States to initiate it, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Tuesday.
“We do not yet have information on whether anything at all will be discussed between Putin and Trump at the G20 in Japan, because the public intention was once again expressed, but so far no concrete actions have been taken to initiate such a meeting and to suggest it," Peskov told reporters when asked whether the Nord Stream-2 gas pipeline would be discussed at the Putin-Trump talks if such a meeting takes place.
“Certainly, if this happens, if such a meeting is initiated, our president has already said that he will be happy to hold such a meeting. And, obviously, of course, let's say, Europe’s energy security issues may be touched upon,” he said.
