USA võib kutsuda Zelenskid G20 tipukohtumisele, kui osalemine annab positiivse tulemuse

Miks see on oluline

Võimalik kutsumine asetaks Zelenski ja Putini samale rahvusvahelisele foorumile ning võiks luua võimaluse otseseks kohtumiseks või laiemaks diplomaatiliseks aruteluks. Otsus on siiski tingimuslik ja üksnes Trumpi kätes. Samal ajal sai kohtumine avalikuks areeniks vastupidiste seisukohtade vahel: Washington rõhutab dialoogi, vahendaj rolli ja tuumaarsete riskide juhtimist, eurooplased aga hoiatavad Venemaa osalemise normaliseerivat mõju selle sõja ajal toime pandud rikkumiste suhtes.

Mis juhtus

G20 välisministrite kohtumisel Atlantas osales Venemaa välisminister Sergei Lavrov. Rubio selgitas pärast kohtumist, et Washington peab Venemaaga dialог säilitama, sest rahuliku врегулюЮвання otsimine eeldab läbirääkimisi mõlema poolega ning Venemaa tuumaarsest arsenalist tingitud eskalatsiooni riski tõttu on oluline säilitada kommunikatsioon. Ta rõhutas, et Venemaaga suhtlemine ei legitimiseeri Kremli tegusid ega toeta selle seisukohti ning USA on valmis vahendama sõja lõpetamist, kui mõlema poolega збережеться можликость розмовляти.

Рубіо также сказав, что Вашингтон может запросить Зеленського, если его участие способно дать положительные результаты, однако окончательное решение должен принять Трамп. На момент заявления официальных объявлений не было. Зеленский ранее заявил о готовности приехать в Майами и встретиться с Путиным, если тот примет приглашение. Позднее СМИ сообщали, что Путин отклонил предложение Зеленского провести переговоры на полях саммита, хотя сам не подтвердил участие в G20.

Участь Лаврова вызвала недовольство представителей ряда стран, а традиционное совместное фото участников убрали из официальной программы после того, как часть делегаций отказалась фотографироваться с российским министром.

Kuidas Ukraina allikad seda kirjeldavad

Ukrainian reporting focused on the possible participation of Zelensky and a potential meeting with Putin. The coverage highlighted that the US had not formally announced an invitation, Putin had rejected Zelensky’s proposal to negotiate at the summit and had not confirmed his own attendance. Ukrainian sources also relayed European warnings that Russia’s return to international forums could normalize its war crimes, along with calls for stronger sanctions and continued support for Ukraine.

Kus kajastused lahknevad

The main divergence was over how close the parties were to an agreement. Trump said on 31 October that they were nearing a deal to end the war and that important arrangements could be reached at the December G20 summit. Rubio said that he did not know whether a negotiated settlement was possible and that there were no signs of an approaching agreement.

European officials also interpreted Russian participation differently from Washington. European representatives warned that involving Moscow while the war continues could normalize Russian war crimes and questioned whether Russia was ready for peace talks. The United States emphasized keeping channels open, mediation, communication with both sides and managing escalation risks associated with Russia’s nuclear arsenal.

Taust

The G20 leaders’ summit is scheduled for 14–15 December 2026 in Miami, Florida. The United States had already invited Vladimir Putin, although he had not confirmed accepting the invitation. Zelensky had said he was ready to attend and meet Putin if the latter came. Reports said Putin rejected Zelensky’s proposal to negotiate ending the war on the sidelines of the summit.

Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov attended the foreign ministers’ meeting in Atlanta, drawing dissatisfaction from some participants. The traditional group photograph was removed from the program after some participants refused to pose with Lavrov. European officials also welcomed the US decision to sell Ukraine 500 Patriot interceptors and called for stronger sanctions against Russia.
