Russia open to Biden-Putin meeting at upcoming G-20 summit
Ahead of the Group of 20 summit in Bali, Indonesia, next month, Russia indicated it may be open to a meeting between President Joe Biden and President Vladimir Putin, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said in an interview with news agency Interfax.
"We have repeatedly said that we never refuse meetings," Lavrov said, according to Interfax. "If a proposal is made, it will be considered by us."
The White House National Security Council pointed to a comment made by Biden on Thursday outside the White House.
When asked by a reporter if he would meet with Putin, Biden responded, "That remains to be seen."
