国际英语资讯:Putin, Trump may meet in Germany, but no agreement yet: Kremlin

发布时间：2019-11-09 编辑：查字典英语网小编

MOSCOW, June 21 -- Russian President Vladimir Putin and his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump may meet next month in Germany, but there is no agreement so far, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Wednesday.

"Putin and Trump will attend the G20 summit on July 7-8 in Germany's Hamburg, and we do not rule out they will meet on the sidelines of the event one way or another," said Peskov.

But he noted that there is no concrete agreement on the meeting so far and nothing has been planned.

If there is a need, Russia and the United States still have time to prepare for the long-anticipated meeting of the two presidents and there are no obstacles standing in the way, said Peskov.

As for the expanded U.S. sanctions, Russian experts are working on possible countermeasures, said Peskov, adding that reciprocity is the main principle of the response.

The Kremlin spokesman said Moscow regrets the new U.S. sanctions, which will undermine the settlement of the Ukrainian crisis.

The U.S. Treasury Department on Tuesday imposed additional sanctions on Russia over its actions in Ukraine, blacklisting 38 individuals and entities.

The new sanctions, together with repeated encounters of Russian and U.S. warplanes over the Baltic Sea and the suspension of a military hotline in Syria, will cast shadows on the possible meeting between Putin and Trump.
