There is no exact date yet for the meeting between the presidents of Russia and the United States, Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump, but it is still on the agenda. This was announced on November 11 by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban. His words are transmitted by ATV TV channel.

"The Budapest summit is on the agenda, but no one knows the exact date yet. This meeting will take place if all the conditions are met," Orban said.

The politician recalled that the meeting had been postponed, but not canceled, and expressed the hope that it would take place later.

"A U.S.-Russian agreement [on Ukraine] is not impossible," he said.

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said on October 29 that the dates and venue of a new meeting between Putin and Trump would be determined when the contents of such a meeting would be prepared. He also said that so far there are no necessary conditions for holding a meeting between the two leaders. According to Ryabkov, at the moment, the priority for the foreign ministries in preparation for the meeting is to provide specifics on the points that were formulated by the heads of state during the meeting in Alaska.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, in turn, said on November 7 that the Russian-American summit in Budapest was in demand by both sides, but that scrupulous expert work was needed to organize it.

Later, on November 9, Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Economic Relations Peter Szijjarto said that a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and American Leader Donald Trump in Budapest would take place if they reached an agreement on how to end the conflict in Ukraine.
