Some of which have been created precisely by Russia&#8217;s war against Ukraine,&#8221; Olof Gill, the Commission&#8217;s deputy chief spokesperson, said on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I also recall that Russia is escalating attacks on Ukrainian civilians as we speak. July and August were the deadliest months since the war started,&#8221; he went on.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Since 2022, the EU has consistently and forcefully used G20 meetings to condemn Russia&#8217;s full-scale invasion and to call for it to end. What I can say today is that this approach, from the European Union perspective, will continue irrespective of the participants at any G20 meeting.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>US Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed on Wednesday that his country, which holds the rotating G20 presidency, has formally invited Putin to attend the summit that President Donald Trump will host at his golf resort in Miami.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We think it&#8217;s an opportunity for him to engage not just with the President but with other world leaders. We hope that&#8217;s an invitation he&#8217;ll accept,&#8221; Rubio said.<\/p>\n<p>In response, the Kremlin said it was &#8220;grateful and appreciative&#8221; and would study the invitation. Putin has skipped G20 summits since the start of the war. His last in-person attendance was in Osaka in 2019. He participated remotely in 2020 and 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The news has unsettled Europeans, who <strong>have consistently pushed<\/strong> to isolate Putin and his deputies on the international stage. The Trump administration, however, does not share this strategy and favours Russia&#8217;s inclusion in these high-level formats.<\/p>\n<p>Washington&#8217;s surprise decision to invite Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov to a ministerial meeting in August was met with outrage from Europeans. After complaints, Siluanov was left out of the family picture.<\/p>\n<p>Asked whether von der Leyen will boycott the family picture if Putin is featured, the spokesperson declined to comment on hypothetical scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ll see how the situation develops,&#8221; Gill said.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with Sky News, High Representative Kaja Kallas was more critical about Putin&#8217;s potential attendance. (Kallas herself is not invited to the Miami gathering.)<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We need to discuss this together with colleagues, but it&#8217;s clearly, I think, the wrong path to normalise people who are starting wars, who are going against the UN charter, who are killing and giving orders to kill civilians, to ignore the international humanitarian law, to cause as much damage and suffering to people (as) they can,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the Miami summit could provide an opportunity for his long-held trilateral meeting with Trump and Putin, which Trump has backed but Putin has repeatedly shunned.<\/p>\n<p>Kyiv has been trying to revive the peace process led by Washington, but Moscow has shown scarce willingness to engage, choosing instead to ramp up airstrikes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ukraine will support it if such a format is approved and there is a corresponding agreement,&#8221; Zelenskyy said.<\/p>\n<p>The G20 includes several of Ukraine&#8217;s allies: Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, South Korea, the UK and the EU. The leaders of Finland, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland and Spain have been reportedly invited as well.<\/p>\n<p>But it also covers countries that maintain close ties with Moscow, such as China, India and Saudi Arabia, that see in the G20 a counterweight to the more exclusive G7, from which Russia was expelled after the annexation of Crimea in 2014.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>

Some of which have been created precisely by Russia&#8217;s war against Ukraine,&#8221; Olof Gill, the Commission&#8217;s deputy chief spokesperson, said on Thursday.&#8221;I also recall that Russia is escalating attacks on Ukrainian civilians as we speak. July and August were the deadliest months since the war started,&#8221; he went on.&#8221;Since 2022, the EU has consistently and forcefully used G20 meetings to condemn Russia&#8217;s full-scale invasion and to call for it to end. What I can say today is that this approach, from the European Union perspective, will continue irrespective of the participants at any G20 meeting.&#8221;US Secretary of State Marco Rubio confirmed on Wednesday that his country, which holds the rotating G20 presidency, has formally invited Putin to attend the summit that President Donald Trump will host at his golf resort in Miami.&#8221;We think it&#8217;s an opportunity for him to engage not just with the President but with other world leaders.\u00a0We hope that&#8217;s an invitation he&#8217;ll accept,&#8221; Rubio said.In response, the Kremlin said it was &#8220;grateful and appreciative&#8221; and would study the invitation. Putin has skipped G20 summits since the start of the war. His last in-person attendance was in Osaka in 2019. He participated remotely in 2020 and 2021.The news has unsettled Europeans, who have consistently pushed to isolate Putin and his deputies on the international stage. The Trump administration, however, does not share this strategy and favours Russia&#8217;s inclusion in these high-level formats.Washington&#8217;s surprise decision to invite Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov to a ministerial meeting in August was met with outrage from Europeans. After complaints, Siluanov was left out of the family picture.Asked whether von der Leyen will boycott the family picture if Putin is featured, the spokesperson declined to comment on hypothetical scenarios.&#8221;We&#8217;ll see how the situation develops,&#8221; Gill said.In an interview with Sky News, High Representative Kaja Kallas was more critical about Putin&#8217;s potential attendance. (Kallas herself is not invited to the Miami gathering.)&#8221;We need to discuss this together with colleagues, but it&#8217;s clearly, I think, the wrong path to normalise people who are starting wars, who are going against the UN charter, who are killing and giving orders to kill civilians, to ignore the international humanitarian law, to cause as much damage and suffering to people (as) they can,&#8221; she said.Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the Miami summit could provide an opportunity for his long-held trilateral meeting with Trump and Putin, which Trump has backed but Putin has repeatedly shunned.Kyiv has been trying to revive the peace process led by Washington, but Moscow has shown scarce willingness to engage, choosing instead to ramp up airstrikes.&#8221;Ukraine will support it if such a format is approved and there is a corresponding agreement,&#8221; Zelenskyy said.The G20 includes several of Ukraine&#8217;s allies: Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, South Korea, the UK and the EU. The leaders of Finland, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland and Spain have been reportedly invited as well.But it also covers countries that maintain close ties with Moscow, such as China, India and Saudi Arabia, that see in the G20 a counterweight to the more exclusive G7, from which Russia was expelled after the annexation of Crimea in 2014.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/09\/24\/eu-vows-to-condemn-russia-at-g20-summit-regardless-of-putins-attendance&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/92\/61\/87\/1200x675_cmsv2_224f1d10-96b4-578a-95ba-00fcc42e6e29-9926187.jpg&#8221;] Europe News Ukraine pushes for Russian assets to plug $78 billion gap in 2027 Europe News No energy shortage, but a painful winter looms for Europe Europe News Pressure grows within EPP to expel Vu\u010di\u0107\u2019s SNS party Europe News Magyar&#8217;s &#8216;Operation Purge&#8217; takes shape with high level detentions Europe News Ukraine pushes [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-2170015","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2170015","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2170015"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2170015\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2170015"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2170015"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2170015"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
