Reuters news agency reported, citing two Russian sources, that the Kremlin is considering Saudi Arabia or the United Arab Emirates as possible locations for a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump.
The sources said that senior Russian officials recently traveled to the two countries to review preparations for the meeting.
Donald Trump had previously announced that he was ready to meet with Putin to end the war in Ukraine as soon as possible, and the Russian side has welcomed the offer.
However, some Russian officials are skeptical of this idea due to Saudi Arabia and the UAE’s close military and security ties with the United States.
