Berlin's position on possible dialogue with Moscow

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz confirmed his readiness for personal negotiations with Vladimir Putin. According to him, such a meeting could take place within the framework of the Group of Twenty (G20) summit, which is scheduled to be held in Miami, if the Russian president decides to participate.

«Канцлеру Німеччини в будь-якому разі доведеться коли-небудь провести розмову з Путіним. За нашими даними, президент Трамп вже надіслав йому запрошення на саміт. Поки підтвердження немає, але якщо Путін приїде, я не буду уникати розмови» (The German Chancellor will in any case have to have a conversation with Putin at some point. According to our information, President Trump has already sent him an invitation to the summit. There is no confirmation yet, but if Putin comes, I will not avoid the conversation), Merz emphasised.

The G20 meeting in Miami will take place on 14–15 December. At the time of publication, Russia had not yet given official confirmation regarding the presence of its head of state at the event.
