Putin, Erdogan Set to Hold Bilateral Meeting During Antalya G20 Summit
MOSCOW (Sputnik) It is too early to talk about a possible meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart Barack Obama on the sidelines of the upcoming G20 summit in Turkey, as the Russian leader's schedule is not finalized yet, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Monday.

"The schedule of bilateral meetings has not been finalized yet, it is now being drafted in cooperation with other countries…talk of [a meeting between Putin and Obama] is premature," Peskov told journalists.

The G20 summit is scheduled to be held in the southern Turkish city of Antalya on November 15-16.

Last week, the Kremlin confirmed that a meeting between Putin and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan had been scheduled to take place on the sidelines of the summit.

G20, formally established in 1999, is a leading forum for international cooperation on important aspects of the international economic and financial agenda. The G20 membership represents the world’s largest advanced and emerging economies, comprising 85 percent of global GDP and more than 75 percent of global trade.
