Russian presidential press secretary Dmitry Peskov said a final settlement without Kyiv's participation is impossible. He also said that on the sidelines of a summit in China in November, a meeting of the leaders of Russia, the United States and China is possible to discuss ending hostilities.
“Of course, unconditionally, a final settlement without the participation of anyone in Kyiv who is ready to take responsibility is impossible,” he said.
According to Peskov, the topic of such a hypothetical meeting had been mentioned, but there were no specific proposals or agreements on it. Earlier, media reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin had put forward this initiative.
“No specific proposals or agreements, either on the meeting itself or on its possible agenda and content, have been discussed or put forward by anyone,” he said.
The Wall Street Journal, citing sources, reported that Putin proposed that Chinese President Xi Jinping and US President Donald Trump meet in China. According to the report, Putin raised the issue during a phone call with his American counterpart on October 9.
