Russian President Vladimir Putin is ready to meet with US President Donald Trump, though details of any such meeting, including its timing, remain unavailable, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said, according to Iran's Mehr News agency.
Peskov's comments, reported from Tehran, suggest that while the Kremlin has signaled openness to a meeting between the two leaders, no concrete arrangements have yet been finalized.
The potential meeting would take place against the backdrop of continued diplomatic activity in New York, where world leaders have gathered for the United Nations General Assembly.
Mehr News's report did not specify what topics such a meeting might cover or whether preparatory talks between Russian and American officials were already under way.
Putin and Trump have both signaled at various points an interest in direct talks, even as the underlying disagreements over the war in Ukraine and other issues between Moscow and Washington remain unresolved.
