Russian President Vladimir Putin has accepted Indonesia's
invitation to take part in a summit meeting of the Group of 20, but
the details are still being specified, presidential aide Yury
Ushakov told the media on Monday, Trend reports citing TASS .
'Yes, we have confirmed. Our participation is due,' he said.
At the same time, he was uncertain whether Putin would attend
the meeting in person or participate by video link.
'I do not know. For now, they have invited to participate
personally, but there is much time left. I hope that the pandemic
situation will permit to hold this important forum face to face.
I'd like to avoid guessing,' he said.
Some countries, he remarked, remained closed in the context of
the pandemic.
'We have received an official invitation, which is very
important in the light of the pressure the Indonesians have been
and still are exposed to,' he added. Ushakov stressed that this
issue would be on the agenda of the Indonesian President Joko
Widodo's visit to Moscow on June 30.
'We thanked him for the invitation and said that we would be
interested to participate. There is much time left. We'll see,'
Ushakov concluded.
He recalled that Widodo had invited Putin to participate in the
G20 summit on Bali on November 15-16.
