  "account": "U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio disclosed that President Donald Trump will determine if Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will attend the G20 summit in Miami in December 2026. During a meeting of G20 foreign ministers in Atlanta on October 31, Rubio expressed that he wouldn't rule out Zelenskyy's invitation, especially if attending could lead to positive outcomes. However, he did not announce anything at the time. Rubio also stated that the U.S. and Russia must maintain relations at a certain level due to Russia possessing nuclear weapons. In September 2026, Trump's administration had already invited Russian President Vladimir Putin to the G20 summit in Miami, which led to discussions among Western allies due to Russia's ongoing war against Ukraine. Zelenskyy had already expressed his willingness to meet with Putin at the G20 format in Miami. After meeting with Trump during the U.N. General Assembly in New York on September 22, Zelenskyy reiterated his readiness for talks, mentioning that Trump himself could facilitate a trilateral meeting for peace. On September 23, Kremlin press secretary Dmitry Peskov reported that Putin was allegedly ready to meet with both Trump and Zelenskyy, provided Russia's preconditions were met. On October 17, Trump admitted he was unsure about Putin's attendance at the G20 summit in December, adding that he would love to have him there. The G20 summit is scheduled for December 14-15, 2026, in Miami.",
