TREE NEWS update: Russian President Vladimir Putin’s attendance at the G20 summit in Miami this December will depend on a range of factors, including the substantive preparations for the summit and the overall geopolitical backdrop, said Denis Agafonov, Russia’s G20 coordinator and head of the expert department of the presidential administration. The summit is scheduled to be held in Miami in December.

The coordinator's emphasis on substantive preparations suggests Russia wants the agenda and format settled before committing, which matters for a summit hosted in the United States. Whether the conditions cited are actually met — and whether the Kremlin treats them as sufficient — is the open question worth watching.
