“I don’t know anything that would indicate the existence of circumstances for a personal meeting,” RIA Novosti reports his words in response to a corresponding question.
French President Emmanuel Macron and Scholz, in a telephone conversation with Putin on May 28, asked for a "ceasefire" in Ukraine, where an operation is being carried out to protect the Donbass.
Putin, in turn, in a conversation with European politicians, “pointed out the issue” about the danger of pumping Ukraine with Western weapons.
He warned European colleagues that this carries the risks of destabilization.
