Russian President Vladimir Putin may be invited to the G20 summit to be held in Brazil in November only if all countries participating in the event agree. This was stated by French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday, March 28, during a press conference in Brazil. This was reported by DW, according to UNN.

According to Macron, the point of uniting the twenty industrialized countries is to reach a consensus with the other 19 countries, which will be the task of Brazilian diplomacy.
The G20 must act to serve the cause of peace and common interests
In Macron's opinion, the meeting can be beneficial and should be held.
If it will not be useful and will lead to discord, it should not be conducted
He recalled that he had abandoned the idea of inviting Putin to the G7 summit in France in August 2019 precisely because of the lack of consensus in the G7 on this issue, and instead organized a separate meeting with the Russian president.
