Negotiations between the presidents of the Russian Federation and the United States, Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump on the margins of the G20 summit in Argentina under threat of failure. This recognized the official representative of the Kremlin, Dmitry Peskov. According to him, contradictory signals are constantly coming from Washington, so it is not clear whether to prepare for a bilateral summit or not.. "The circumstances are constantly changing, and our American colleagues, perhaps, they will change, and we. Therefore, while there are no concrete agreements, we cannot say clearly, "- commented on the situation of Peskov on the TV channel" Russia-1 ". He made it clear that the White House is troubled: it does not say anything directly, but in the Argentine media there is suddenly information that Trump will arrive in the country not for two days, but for one. Since many events have been planned as part of the main event, the G20 summit, there may be no time left for a bilateral meeting of leaders, especially full negotiations.. At the same time, the Trump administration is not in a hurry to share their plans at the official level.. “Therefore, we don’t know yet how this correlates with such projects,” noted Peskov.. G20 Summit will be held in Buenos Aires on November 30 - December 1. It was originally planned that during the trip to Argentina, the presidents of the Russian Federation and the United States will hold the second meeting there in a month - the first was expected on November 11 in France. However, Paris asked Moscow and Washington not to arrange a party at events dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War, so as not to distract the attention of the press.. Trump and Putin, even at the time of a business breakfast, were seated, depriving them of the opportunity to exchange a word. However, during lunch, the leaders of the Russian Federation and the United States still found an opportunity to talk. Putin later called the conversation with a colleague "good".
A spokesman for the US President Sarah Sanders said that the heads of the White House and the Kremlin "well and productively" discussed the nuclear treaty, the treaty on the elimination of the INF, trade, sanctions, the situation in Syria, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, China and North Korea, RIA reports "News". Plans to continue the conversation in Argentina, the representative of Trump did not mention. But Putin and Trump themselves, parting in Paris, said to each other: "See you soon!".
