Trump’s G20 invite to Putin is an ‘opportunity,’ German foreign minister says – POLITICO

German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul Friday said that the participation of Russian President Vladimir Putin at a G20 meeting could be the start of “serious negotiations” to end Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

U.S. President Donald Trump invited the Russian president to the next G20 summit in Miami scheduled for December.

Many leaders, including Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and the EU’s foreign affairs chief Kaja Kallas expressed strong reservations about the invitation.
