Peskov on calls and projects Future talks remain unclear

Oct 8

In a Turkmenistan press exchange, Dmitry Peskov says a Putin–Trump telephone conversation could happen that day or the next, or might not happen. A reporter asks whether Putin might discuss the Ukraine battlefield; he confirms no agenda and says its content would not be announced in advance. Asked about a Putin–Trump–Xi meeting mentioned at Valdai, he says there are no ideas on that subject yet. A separate question asks about US financing for restoration of Nord Stream. Peskov responds that a range of potential, mutually beneficial economic-cooperation projects is being discussed. The complete exchange establishes neither a scheduled call or three-way summit nor an agreed Nord Stream investment.

Asked in Turkmenistan about Trump's proposed call with Putin, Peskov says it could happen that day or the next, or might not occur, and that call agendas are not announced in advance. A question suggesting a Ukraine battlefield update receives no confirmed agenda. This is Peskov's public response, not a completed or firmly scheduled telephone conversation.
