MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Economics, not geopolitics, are planned to be discussed at G20 events in the United States, with geopolitical issues reserved solely for foreign ministers' talks, Russia's G20 Sherpa Svetlana Lukash told Sputnik.
"Our American colleagues made it clear that the G20 is not a place to discuss issues of geopolitics," Lukash said.
The only forum where geopolitics might be discussed is the foreign ministers' meeting, she added.
The G20 foreign ministers will meet in the United States in late 2026, Russia's G20 Sherpa Svetlana Lukash said.
"The meeting of foreign ministers will take place towards the end... of the year," Lukash said.
The US assumed the G20 2026 presidency on December 1, 2025. The first meeting of G20 representatives under the US presidency took place in Washington on December 15-16, 2025.
US President Donald Trump will host the G20 Leaders’ Summit in Miami on December 14-15, 2026.
The meeting of foreign ministers precedes contacts between heads of state.
