Details
I do not know what is in President putin's mind, and you cannot know it either. I had a lot of meetings with him from 2010 to 14 in my previous role. He is absolutely unpredictable, he is also strong in negotiations, but in order to reach an agreement, we need him to be there, because he started the war against Ukraine and so we need to make sure that the results are first of all strong, but also that they are understood in different countries in the Pacific, in China
