The US asks Zelensky to participate in the G20 summit as a counterweight to Putin

MADRID, 19 Ago. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The White House has proposed that the president of Ukraine, Volodimir Zelensky, also participate in the summit of G20 leaders if his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, accepts Indonesia's invitation and attends the meeting scheduled for November in Bali.

The US National Security Council has recalled that the president himself, Joe Biden, has publicly criticized that Putin can attend the forum normally, given the general rejection of the military offensive launched in Ukraine.

However, Washington believes that if Putin is involved, so should Zelensky, reports the Bloomberg news agency. The mention does not clarify the level of Ukrainian participation, since in July Foreign Minister Dimitro Kuleba spoke before his G20 counterparts via videoconference.

Biden has not yet clarified whether he will travel to Indonesia, but the president of this country, Joko Widodo, has stated in an interview with Bloomberg that both Putin and the president of China, Xi Jinping, have confirmed that they intend to attend in person.
