Negotiations involving the US, Russia, and Ukraine aimed at a peaceful settlement may take place in October. This possibility was not ruled out on Sunday, September 13, by the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Peskov. "Yes, we do not exclude such a possibility. We are indeed talking about the foreseeable future. That is, of course, presumably October. October cannot be excluded," the Interfax agency quoted him as saying. According to Peskov, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping actively offered Russian leader Vladimir Putin assistance in resolving the conflict during the BRICS summit. Additionally, the possibility of negotiations in Abu Dhabi was discussed. ## ## Kushner: A creative solution must be found Meanwhile, US Special Envoy and President Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, connecting via video link to the YES Annual Meeting 2026 forum, noted that the territorial issue is the most complex on the path to resolution. "Our task as mediators is to find a creative solution that does not violate Ukraine's interests," he emphasized. According to Kushner, a formula is needed that will allow both sides to move forward within frameworks that prevent the recurrence of the conflict. ## ## Moscow rejected the meeting in Miami Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov once again suggested to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to come to Moscow for negotiations during his visit to New Delhi. The meeting between the presidents of Russia and Ukraine at the G20 in Miami is "impossible," Peskov stated to AFP, rejecting the corresponding proposal from the Ukrainian leader. ## ## Zelensky: Ready to meet with Putin at G20 Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on September 11 to DW that he is ready to meet with Vladimir Putin in Miami at the G20 summit in December if the Russian leader participates. "Yes, of course. We must come. We must meet, talk, and make decisions. It’s not about words. It doesn’t matter what I say to him or what he wants to say to me. The only thing that matters is the result. That’s all," he noted.
