Trilateral meeting between leaders of Russia, US, China possible - Ryabkov

The holding of a trilateral meeting involving the leaders of Russia, China, and the United States is not ruled out, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said.

"The idea exists; it has been introduced into the public space. It would be an exaggeration to say that it is moving into the phase of preparation," Ryabkov said.

The deputy minister said that the main question boils down to how the substantive side will be formulated, and what they will expect as an outcome.

"Although it is clear that formats, especially at the highest level, are themselves extremely significant and send the right signals. Like, for example, the RIC format," Ryabkov said.
