On the air of the propaganda program "60 minutes" on the TV channel "Russia 1" the minister said that Moscow never refuses such meetings, but will consider this opportunity only after the proposal by Washington. About it reports the agency "RBC". "We say many times that we never give up meetings, and if the offer comes, then we will consider it," Lavrov said.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation noted that talking about the meeting of the leaders of the two states at the G20 countries in Indonesia is based on the words of US President Joe Biden. When he was asked about the possibility of meeting with Vladimir Putin, the White House Head replied: "We will see. " "If everyone thinks that there is already a signal of the readiness of such a meeting by Biden, then this confidence, as I understand, is based on his phrase -" Look ". . .

This is probably more for journalistic analytical fictions than for real policy ", - Lavrov replied. The G20 leaders meeting is scheduled for November 15-16 on Bali Island. Indonesia Minister Retno Marudy confirmed that Putin would take part in the summit. "So far, the answer to our invitation is positive," Marudi said. Back in August this year, Indonesia President Joko Didodo reported that Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping were planning to visit the November Summit.

We will remind that Russian official sources do not yet speak about whether Vladimir Putin will participate in the Greater Twenty summit, which should take place on November 15-16 in Indonesia or not.
