Kremlin says timing of potential Putin-Trump summit remains unclear

Investing.com -- The Kremlin stated on Tuesday that the timing of a potential summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump remains uncertain, with no specific dates having been mentioned.

"We cannot postpone something that has not been finalised. Neither President Trump nor President Putin have given exact dates. Preparation is needed, serious preparation," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.

Peskov added that Moscow currently had "no understanding" of when a meeting between the two presidents might take place.

The Kremlin’s comments came after CNN reported that a planned preparatory meeting between U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov had been put on hold. This session, which was expected to take place this week, was reportedly viewed as a key step toward organizing a Trump-Putin summit.

However, the Kremlin denied that any meeting had been postponed.
