Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday that he would be ready to meet with his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky if he visits Moscow.

Speaking at a news conference in Beijing, Putin said that U.S. President Donald Trump asked him to meet with Zelensky during their meeting in Alaska last month and that he had conveyed his readiness to do so to the American leader.

“I have never refused, provided that the meeting is well prepared and can lead to some positive potential outcomes,” he said.

“Donald asked me if I could organize such a meeting. I answered that yes, it is possible. Ultimately, if Zelensky is ready, let him come to Moscow. Then the meeting will take place,” Putin added.

The meeting between the U.S. and Russian presidents in Alaska in August was the first in more than four years. It lasted about three hours, after which both leaders issued press releases, expressing “good results” and emphasizing the need to continue efforts.
