Putin can be invited to the G20 summit in Brazil in November only if all participating countries agree, French President Emmanuel Macron said.

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.

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

The head of the French state emphasized.

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

Macron said.

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.
