During remarks following discussions with Sergey Lavrov at the United Nations, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that President Trump has extending the G20 invitation to Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin.
The G20 in Miami is scheduled for December 14th and 15th, and while there is no official reason for Volodymyr Zelenskyy to ever attend any of the G7, G20 or NATO forums, the President of Ukraine has been a participant in the last several years due to the European and Canadian political manipulations surrounding such events.
That said, if Vladimir Putin attends the G20 and Zelenskyy is invited to the G20 (for whatever ridiculous justification that might be presented), it would be the first time Zelenskyy and Putin have been in an international forum simultaneously.
In the background today, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov was reported to have told Secretary Rubio that Russia understands the United States no longer is influencing the EU-NATO decisions about escalating conflict in the European desire to achieve full military combat against Russia; therefore there was no reason for Lavrov and Rubio to waste time in discussions of some meeting between Putin and Zelenskyy when the people in actual control of Kiev’s decision-making are in London, Berlin and Brussels.
It appears Rubio respected Lavrov’s pragmatic reality yet still wants to set the stage for an opportunity that exists outside the constraints of the EU-NATO alliance – hence, the G20 venue in Miami becomes a possibility.

This should be quite the festive occasion.
Explains the BOOM I just heard. It was the splodey heads.
I’m betting that there will be some cancellations among the invitees.
TeeHee!!
Yes, it will be quite interesting to see how some will twist themselves into knots trying justify not showing up if Putin accepts.
I would not let Zeppo attend. That rude spectacle he put on at the WH last year was a mess. A more productive meeting would be for President Putin and Minister Lavrov to attend with the other heads of state.
President Trump will announce the withdrawal of sanctions on Russian oil prior to this event and use this as a chance to formalize various trade pacts.
Interesting idea, it will be quite the show if this happens.
about an hour (71 miles) to Mar-a-Lago from Miami via motorcade.
just sayin’…😁
Trump Doral even closer.
Safer and shorter by air.
that would work, too.😁
just think what those two could accomplish completely
protected from the prying eyes of our IC and the world!
Well done around — President Trump, SofS Rubio, Putin and Lavrov.
President Trump will have this shit ended by mid-2027.
President Trump is a “wheels within wheels” man.
I have to wonder when or if he ever shuts that brain of his off.
When you enjoy the work you do it is not a job but a fulfilling lifestyle. 😉
This is true, DG….he is invigorated.
I can’t give attribution alas, but…
“Find something you love to do, and you’ll never work a day in your life.”
I could see Canada (Carney) and England (Burnham) pulling out of the G20 if Putin is confirmed. I don’t think Macron (France) would boycott, because France has significant trade with Russia. As for Germany, Merz is in a conundrum. He is failing at home, so a boycott could be seen as a sign of weakness.
The Eurotrash leaders just can’t wait to start a shooting war with Russia.
Fools! Fools!!
Does not one of them understand the gravity of the situation???
Idiots!!
They know exactly what they seek.
They’re giddy with the prospect of sending their pesky populations off to war to die for them.
They & their families will rule over the enslaved that will remain. At least that’s their plan…
2 days ago the Russians said Putin would not attend the G20.

Should be interesting to see if this changes after the official invite.
How does that Little Nazi get to attend all of these big events?
As Sec. Rubio continues his diplomacy via “new rhetoric” many world leaders and their diplomats are starting to realize his words present an “energy” that compliments many goals shared and for those with real anger toward the United States a direct and dire warning easily emerges.
He presents a clarity not seen in decades on the world stage, in my opinion–which I like and admire!
That should stir the EU shi*pot.
